world_n how_o too_o utter_a the_o love_n that_o he_o bear_v we_o nor_o his_o great_a goodness_n towards_o we_o better_o than_o by_o give_v we_o issue_n final_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o faithful_a man_n shall_v be_v gather_v into_o his_o grave_n as_o a_o stack_n of_o corn_n be_v gather_v together_o in_o due_a time_n and_o lay_v into_o the_o berne_n and_o also_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v come_v thither_o in_o abundance_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o shall_v have_v live_v his_o fill_n here_o eliphas_n mean_v to_o say_v that_o god_n will_v preserve_v his_o servant_n from_o violent_a death_n and_o guide_v they_o after_o such_o sort_n in_o this_o world_n that_o when_o soever_o they_o must_v depart_v it_o shall_v be_v as_o if_o a_o man_n gather_v corn_n in_o harvest_n time_n and_o it_o be_v better_a that_o corn_n shall_v be_v lay_v into_o a_o berne_n than_o that_o it_o shall_v perish_v in_o the_o field_n for_o what_o be_v it_o too_o leave_v corn_n stand_v in_o the_o field_n after_o that_o it_o be_v dead_a ripe_a ▪_o the_o grain_n must_v needs_o shed_v and_o come_v to_o naught_o the_o bird_n will_v eat_v some_o of_o it_o and_o the_o rest_n of_o it_o must_v rot_v and_o be_v tread_v into_o the_o dirt_n but_o if_o it_o be_v gather_v into_o the_o berne_z a_o man_n may_v apply_v it_o too_o good_a use_n so_o then_o eliphas_n promise_v that_o after_o that_o god_n have_v make_v the_o faithful_a too_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n in_o the_o world_n they_o shall_v come_v too_o full_a ripeness_n and_o he_o will_v gather_v they_o up_o too_o himself_o as_o man_n gather_v corn_n true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o do_v not_o thus_o always_o for_o we_o see_v sometime_o how_o god_n suffer_v his_o servant_n too_o fall_v into_o violent_a death_n and_o that_o he_o pluck_v they_o out_o of_o this_o world_n in_o the_o flower_n of_o their_o age_n yea_o and_o even_o in_o their_o infancy_n we_o see_v that_o cain_n come_v to_o great_a year_n of_o age_n and_o abel_n be_v reach_v away_o by_o the_o sword_n how_o be_v it_o mean_v then_o that_o god_n will_v preserve_v his_o faithful_a one_o even_o till_o they_o be_v full_a ripe_a as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v gather_v corn_n into_o a_o berne_n we_o must_v mark_v first_o of_o all_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n speak_v of_o these_o worldly_a blessing_n it_o intend_v that_o it_o fall_v out_o so_o common_o and_o not_o that_o it_o fall_v out_o so_o continual_o furthermore_o we_o must_v make_v comparison_n between_o the_o great_a benefit_n and_o the_o lesser_a when_o god_n suffer_v his_o child_n too_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o world_n betimes_o ▪_o it_o be_v for_o their_o profit_n for_o god_n provide_v better_a for_o the_o faithful_a man_n when_o he_o call_v he_o to_o he_o at_o the_o age_n of_o twenty_o of_o thirty_o year_n than_o when_o he_o let_v he_o live_v till_o threescore_o and_o special_o when_o we_o see_v the_o world_n flow_v out_o into_o such_o corruption_n that_o all_o be_v confound_v now_o a_o day_n i_o pray_v you_o ought_v we_o not_o too_o esteem_v they_o more_o happy_a in_o that_o god_n have_v draw_v they_o away_o too_o himself_o than_o if_o they_o have_v long_o time_n too_o languish_v here_o it_o be_v a_o miracle_n if_o man_n can_v continue_v here_o and_o come_v all_o to_o old_a age_n for_o we_o see_v what_o snare_v satan_n lay_v for_o we_o and_o how_o it_o be_v right_a hard_a to_o walk_v through_o so_o many_o outrage_n therefore_o if_o god_n pull_v away_o his_o child_n quick_o let_v we_o be_v sure_a that_o he_o do_v it_o for_o their_o great_a benefit_n and_o special_o we_o have_v hereupon_o too_o understand_v that_o although_o they_o be_v bereave_v of_o this_o blessing_n which_o be_v small_a in_o respect_n of_o that_o which_o god_n will_v give_v they_o yet_o do_v he_o not_o cease_v too_o love_n and_o favour_n they_o by_o suffer_v they_o too_o fall_v so_o into_o speedy_a death_n like_v as_o those_o that_o be_v persecute_v by_o tyrant_n have_v a_o most_o precious_a death_n for_o they_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v most_o acceptable_a too_o god_n and_o it_o be_v a_o offering_n of_o sweet_a savour_n when_o he_o see_v his_o word_n seal_v up_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o martyr_n so_o then_o when_o we_o compare_v the_o less_o with_o the_o great_a we_o shall_v find_v that_o this_o promise_n of_o feel_v continual_o the_o say_a blessing_n of_o god_n in_o send_v they_o to_o their_o gra●e_n as_o corn_n that_o be_v gather_v in_o his_o due_a time_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a towards_o the_o faithful_a for_o how_o soever_o the_o world_n go_v he_o rypen_v they_o continual_o if_o a_o faithful_a man_n die_v at_o the_o age_n of_o thirty_o year_n what_o do_v he_o it_o seem_v not_o that_o he_o be_v great_o sorry_a for_o it_o he_o make_v no_o great_a struggle_n against_o it_o as_o we_o see_v the_o unbeliever_n do_v yea_o when_o they_o be_v even_o as_o stale_a as_o earth_n as_o the_o proverb_n say_v behold_v a_o despiser_n of_o god_n and_o a_o worldling_n which_o never_o think_v upon_o death_n and_o when_o it_o come_v too_o the_o point_n that_o god_n will_v pinch_n he_o in_o good_a earnest_n it_o will_v make_v he_o grind_v his_o tooth_n and_o fret_v with_o himself_o ween_v too_o withstand_v death_n and_o say_v can_v i_o not_o prolong_v my_o life_n one_o year_n long_o he_o take_v himself_o too_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o green_a wood_n that_o crackle_v on_o all_o side_n contrariwise_o when_o a_o faithful_a person_n die_v although_o he_o endure_v much_o yet_o he_o betake_v himself_o unto_o god_n and_o comfort_v himself_o in_o he_o and_o although_o there_o be_v strive_v see_v in_o his_o body_n yet_o have_v he_o his_o mind_n quiet_a and_o he_o desire_v nothing_o but_o too_o frame_v himself_o too_o god_n good_a will_n choose_v rather_o too_o die_v when_o god_n call_v he_o than_o too_o live_v here_o to_o be_v short_a he_o desire_v nothing_o but_o too_o obey_v his_o good_a heavenly_a father_n we_o see_v then_o how_o god_n do_v always_o rypen_v his_o servant_n before_o he_o call_v they_o out_o of_o the_o world_n so_o as_o they_o be_v full_o satisfy_v when_o they_o come_v too_o their_o grave_n and_o he_o that_o bring_v but_o twenty_o year_n too_o his_o grave_n be_v more_o ripe_a than_o another_o that_o shall_v bring_v as_o you_o will_v say_v a_o million_o of_o year_n with_o he_o according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o the_o unbeliever_n do_v fret_v and_o chafe_v themselves_o against_o god_n when_o he_o call_v they_o so_o as_o they_o be_v never_o ripe_a nor_o old_a enough_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n bereave_v not_o his_o child_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o promise_v they_o in_o this_o text_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o how_o soever_o the_o world_n go_v they_o shall_v come_v to_o their_o grave_n like_o corn_n that_o be_v through_o ripe_a and_o meet_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o good_a use_n and_o therefore_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v content_v when_o god_n have_v give_v he_o the_o grace_n to_o live_v in_o this_o world_n see_v we_o have_v record_n in_o our_o conscience_n that_o we_o be_v very_o he_o and_o that_o he_o will_v draw_v we_o to_o himself_o and_o although_o it_o please_v he_o to_o keep_v we_o in_o this_o world_n for_o a_o time_n to_o exercise_v we_o with_o many_o affliction_n and_o misery_n yet_o let_v we_o not_o cease_v to_o taste_v continual_o of_o his_o goodness_n which_o he_o make_v we_o too_o feel_v so_o many_o way_n and_o whereof_o we_o shall_v have_v full_a fruition_n after_o this_o present_a life_n when_o he_o shall_v have_v call_v we_o to_o the_o eternal_a rest_n which_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o we_o and_o which_o be_v purchase_v for_o we_o by_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o too_o give_v we_o the_o grace_n that_o in_o walk_v through_o so_o many_o danger_n we_o may_v know_v how_o our_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o that_o we_o have_v need_v too_o be_v so_o beat_v and_o chastise_v at_o his_o hand_n and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o pray_v he_o too_o grant_v we_o the_o grace_n that_o the_o correction_n which_o he_o send_v we_o may_v not_o be_v unprofitable_a too_o we_o but_o that_o we_o may_v through_o they_o learn_v too_o fear_v his_o justice_n so_o as_o we_o may_v be_v the_o earnest_a too_o call_v upon_o he_o in_o our_o necessity_n and_o also_o that_o he_o will_v give_v we_o the_o grace_n to_o walk_v together_o in_o one_o right_a

by_o reason_n of_o the_o unthankfulness_n of_o such_o as_o be_v in_o high_a estate_n for_o they_o forget_v from_o whence_o their_o welfare_n come_v and_o thereupon_o they_o be_v so_o sot_v with_o

we_o see_v the_o cause_n that_o make_v god_n too_o pull_v down_o those_o who_o he_o have_v exalt_v afore_o namely_o i_o say_v because_o they_o can_v not_o keep_v themselves_o within_o the_o bound_n of_o modesty_n nor_o give_v the_o glory_n unto_o god_n nor_o know_v what_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o and_o contrariwise_o the_o honour_n that_o god_n have_v do_v unto_o they_o but_o forget_v

by_o their_o pride_n and_o therefore_o let_v they_o that_o be_v advance_v too_o high_a estate_n beware_v that_o they_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o in_o carefulness_n moreover_o such_o

cry_v out_o i_o be_o build_v upon_o blood_n and_o another_o i_o of_o murder_n therefore_o let_v the_o faithful_a advice_n themselves_o well_o when_o they_o build_v that_o it_o be_v not_o upon_o good_n

it_o behove_v up_o too_o father_n they_o upon_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n as_o how_o sometime_o he_o punish_v they_o that_o have_v abuse_v his_o grace_n and_o sometime_o he_o bear_v with_o they_o so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o perceive_v that_o he_o mind_v too_o punish_v they_o but_o yet_o they_o shall_v have_v so_o much_o the_o more_o terrible_a account_n to_o make_v as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o notwithstanding_o if_o we_o see_v the_o wicked_a fall_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o know_v that_o god_n do_v not_o advance_v they_o without_o cause_n but_o that_o the_o same_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o their_o fall_n shall_v be_v the_o greevouser_n even_o to_o break_v their_o neck_n then_o after_o they_o have_v be_v hoist_v up_o aloft_o god_n must_v make_v they_o to_o fall_v after_o that_o fashion_n furthermore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o their_o burial_n be_v speak_v of_o here_o for_o although_o it_o be_v neither_o here_o nor_o there_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o salvation_n yet_o be_v there_o two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v the_o one_o be_v that_o the_o wicked_a do_v at_o their_o death_n defy_v god_n and_o nature_n and_o think_v too_o prolong_v their_o greatness_n and_o pompousness_n still_o in_o spite_n of_o nature_n when_o our_o lord_n convey_v they_o into_o rottenness_n yea_o even_o then_o do_v i_o say_v the_o worldly_a and_o fleshe_o man_n make_v much_o more_o bravery_n than_o in_o all_o their_o life_n afore_o for_o their_o sumptuous_a burial_n be_v too_o save_o their_o memorial_n from_o perish_v that_o man_n may_v speak_v of_o it_o for_o ever_o so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o the_o foolish_a curiosity_n which_o the_o worldling_n and_o unbeliever_n use_v in_o be_v bury_v with_o great_a pomp_n be_v to_o continue_v their_o pride_n in_o despite_n of_o god_n but_o god_n laugh_v such_o presumption_n to_o scorn_v for_o he_o disappoint_v their_o expectation_n in_o so_o much_o that_o whereas_o they_o purpose_v to_o be_v bury_v honourable_o diverse_a time_n he_o have_v give_v they_o a_o clean_a contrary_a burial_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v also_o to_o be_v consider_v that_o burial_n be_v bring_v in_o by_o god_n it_o be_v no_o invention_n of_o man_n without_o good_a ground_n but_o it_o be_v god_n ordinance_n to_o the_o end_n it_o shall_v be_v a_o witness_n unto_o we_o of_o the_o resurrection_n &_o everlasting_a life_n when_o man_n be_v bury_v they_o be_v lay_v up_o in_o the_o earth_n as_o in_o a_o store_n house_n until_o they_o may_v be_v raise_v up_o again_o at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o so_o our_o burial_n be_v unto_o we_o as_o a_o look_a glass_n of_o the_o resurrection_n therefore_o when_o the_o wicked_a be_v disappoint_v of_o burial_n it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o our_o lord_n utter_v his_o curse_n upon_o they_o after_o a_o visible_a manner_n yea_o even_o as_o well_o in_o death_n as_o in_o life_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v here_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o if_o the_o wicked_a be_v bury_v honourable_o we_o must_v not_o be_v trouble_v at_o it_o nor_o think_v that_o god_n have_v forget_v himself_o or_o that_o he_o execute_v not_o his_o judgement_n in_o convenient_a time_n for_o we_o see_v what_o the_o scripture_n say_v of_o the_o rich_fw-fr man_n namely_o that_o he_o be_v bury_v and_o what_o say_v it_o of_o lazarus_n there_o be_v no_o mention_n

not_o of_o it_o it_o speak_v but_o of_o the_o burial_n of_o the_o rich_fw-fr man_n contrariwise_o if_o god_n child_n happen_v sometime_o to_o lie_v unbury_v be_v it_o to_o be_v conclude_v therefore_o that_o they_o be_v accurse_v no_o like_v as_o when_o the_o wicked_a be_v bury_v it_o be_v not_o too_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v bless_v in_o their_o death_n but_o it_o be_v to_o show_v we_o that_o god_n execute_v not_o his_o temporal_a punishment_n after_o one_o equal_a rate_n in_o this_o world_n but_o reserve_v the_o chief_a to_o himself_o till_o the_o latter_a day_n as_o much_o be_v to_o be_v say_v when_o we_o see_v good_a man_n burn_v and_o put_v to_o open_a shame_n and_o god_n child_n perish_v with_o the_o wicked_a yea_o as_o touch_v the_o body_n so_o as_o they_o be_v carry_v to_o the_o

it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v namely_o that_o they_o be_v such_o judgement_n as_o be_v hide_v and_o incomprehensible_a as_o yet_o and_o that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o tarry_v till_o our_o lord_n bring_v we_o to_o that_o day_n wherein_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v discover_v in_o the_o mean_a season_n let_v we_o know_v that_o the_o heaven_n shall_v serve_v for_o a_o tomb_n too_o such_o as_o be_v so_o martyr_v i_o mean_v too_o the_o innocent_n that_o be_v put_v to_o reproach_n by_o the_o wicked_a and_o the_o persecuter_n and_o that_o if_o they_o have_v the_o honourable_a burial_n in_o the_o world_n it_o be_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o benefit_n and_o privilege_n that_o god_n give_v they_o for_o can_v a_o man_n find_v a_o more_o honourable_a tomb_n than_o the_o heaven_n but_o our_o lord_n make_v that_o to_o serve_v for_o a_o tomb_n for_o his_o child_n when_o he_o bereave_v they_o of_o common_a and_o ordinary_a burial_n and_o so_o if_o it_o please_v god_n to_o have_v we_o bury_v let_v we_o know_v that_o the_o same_o be_v as_o a_o record_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o if_o he_o bereeve_v the_o wicked_a of_o their_o burial_n let_v we_o also_o behold_v his_o vengeance_n both_o in_o their_o life_n and_o in_o their_o death_n yet_o notwithstanding_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o refrain_v ourselves_o and_o to_o have_v our_o eye_n

that_o our_o natural_a wit_n do_v rest_n upon_o and_o look_v at_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o feel_v see_v and_o touch_v therefore_o when_o god_n leave_v we_o in_o such_o extremity_n as_o we_o know_v

therefore_o we_o must_v not_o enclose_v god_n mighty_a power_n within_o our_o imagination_n &_o understanding_n like_a as_o god_n goodness_n be_v endless_a and_o a_o bottomless_a pit_n so_o also_o

when_o it_o be_v say_v of_o our_o god_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o faithful_a shall_v taste_v the_o nearness_n of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v make_v they_o feel_v the_o thing_n by_o

reign_v over_o we_o and_o we_o seem_v to_o be_v utter_o overwhelm_v so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o more_o hope_n of_o life_n our_o lord_n can_v well_o quicken_v we_o yea_o even_o after_o a_o wonderful_a

to_o keep_v they_o from_o stumble_v into_o a_o deadly_a fall_n but_o that_o god_n do_v hold_v they_o back_o by_o affliction_n and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n why_o w●e_n fall_v not_o

we_o not_o think_v hereupon_o that_o god_n pardon_v our_o sin_n too_o let_v we_o fall_v asleep_a in_o they_o but_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v seek_v to_o he_o and_o make_v the_o privilege_n which_o

this_o text_n be_v expound_v by_o some_o man_n as_o though_o eliu_n speak_v of_o god_n say_v that_o it_o be_v he_o that_o look_v so_o towards_o man_n and_o that_o if_o any_o man_n say_v i_o have_v

they_o which_o be_v bring_v so_o low_o as_o to_o feel_v their_o sin_n and_o to_o be_v even_o at_o death_n door_n if_o god_n show_v they_o the_o favour_n to_o call_v they_o back_o again_o and_o give_v

of_o sin_n be_v that_o when_o the_o wretched_a sinner_n know_v that_o god_n have_v not_o shake_v he_o off_o but_o as_o yet_o open_v he_o the_o way_n and_o give_v he_o access_n too_o come_v unto_o he_o like_a as_o he_o rest_v thereupon_o too_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o afterward_o make_v the_o fruit_n of_o faith_n available_a so_o also_o it_o behove_v he_o too_o confess_v the_o say_a goodness_n of_o

have_v send_v we_o the_o promise_n of_o his_o gospel_n we_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v they_o and_o to_o seek_v unto_o he_o so_o also_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o mourn_v before_o man_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v pray_v to_o god_n privy_o by_o himself_o but_o it_o behove_v we_o also_o to_o set_v forth_o his_o glory_n and_o to_o endeavour_n to_o provoke_v our_o

that_o they_o may_v take_v example_n at_o it_o and_o when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o agreement_n amongst_o we_o we_o must_v also_o preach_v god_n praise_n together_o according_a as_o every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v bind_v unto_o he_o and_o there_o be_v not_o any_o man_n which_o may_v not_o just_o confess_v that_o god_n have_v a_o hundred_o time_n pluck_v he_o out_o of_o his_o grave_n and_o quicken_v he_o you_o see_v they_o in_o effect_n what_o the_o mean_a of_o eliu_n be_v howbeit_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_a profit_n by_o this_o sentence_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o behove_v we_o first_o to_o enter_v into_o ourselves_o and_o they_o to_o go_v unto_o god_n &_o afterward_o to_o go_v unto_o our_o neighbour_n thus_o you_o see_v three_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o mark_n and_o it_o be_v a_o order_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o keep_v well_o the_o first_o be_v that_o man_n shall_v examine_v their_o own_o conscience_n &_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o their_o whole_a life_n and_o why_o to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o their_o sin_n for_o until_o we_o have_v well_o perceive_v that_o we_o be_v worse_o than_o wretched_a how_o will_v we_o have_v recourse_n unto_o god_n we_o will_v not_o be_v move_v to_o seek_v he_o nor_o to_o desire_v forgiveness_n so_o than_o it_o be_v requisite_a for_o we_o too_o begin_v at_o the_o say_a point_n namely_o too_o feel_v our_o sin_n how_o grievous_a they_o be_v and_o also_o too_o feel_v and_o conceive_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n too_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v be_v as_o it_o be_v forlorn_a and_o behold_v hell_n as_o it_o be_v gape_v upon_o we_o to_o swallow_v we_o up_o and_o be_v so_o utter_o astonish_v as_o we_o may_v be_v drive_v to_o say_v alas_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v so_o that_o we_o may_v have_v no_o rest_n in_o ourselves_o but_o languish_v so_o in_o our_o misery_n as_o we_o may_v come_v with_o a_o earnest_a zeal_n too_o seek_v the_o lord_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o first_o step_n that_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o the_o second_o be_v that_o we_o must_v come_v unto_o god_n and_o see_v he_o tarry_v not_o till_o we_o seek_v he_o but_o of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n prevent_v we_o in_o somuch_o that_o he_o inspire_v we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v seek_v he_o and_o flee_v for_o refuge_n unto_o his_o mercy_n &_o there_o rest_v when_o we_o have_v any_o promise_n of_o his_o goodness_n set_v afore_o we_o see_v that_o he_o seek_v sinner_n to_o bring_v they_o from_o death_n to_o life_n we_o must_v take_v those_o promise_n and_o apply_v they_o too_o our_o use_n say_v even_o so_o my_o god_n thou_o show_v that_o thou_o be_v willing_a to_o receive_v sinner_n too_o mercy_n behold_v i_o be_o one_o yea_o and_o i_o be_o so_o forlorn_a as_o i_o wot_v not_o any_o more_o what_o too_o do_v therefore_o i_o doubt_v not_o lord_n but_o thou_o will_v make_v i_o feel_v they_o grace_n and_o goodness_n so_o lord_n there_o will_v i_o rest_v and_o although_o i_o be_v hem_v in_o with_o many_o trouble_n and_o sorrow_n which_o be_v able_a to_o turn_v i_o from_o thou_o yet_o will_v i_o rest_v upon_o thy_o promise_n and_o therewith_o call_v upon_o thou_o assure_v myself_o that_o thou_o will_v strengthen_v i_o against_o all_o satan_n temptation_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o deal_v the_o three_o point_n be_v the_o conclusion_n that_o eliu_n make_v here_o which_o be_v that_o we_o must_v declare_v god_n goodness_n to_o our_o neighbour_n so_o farforth_o as_o be_v needful_a to_o their_o edify_n that_o he_o may_v be_v praise_v with_o one_o accord_n and_o that_o all_o man_n may_v confess_v that_o there_o be_v no_o welfare_n but_o in_o his_o mercy_n and_o that_o we_o be_v all_o damn_a if_o the_o only_a goodness_n of_o our_o god_n remedy_n it_o not_o these_o say_v i_o be_v the_o three_o degree_n which_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o keep_v but_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o ourselves_o and_o why_o we_o shall_v see_v many_o which_o will_v blaze_v abroad_o god_n praise_n with_o full_a mouth_n but_o they_o have_v not_o well_o foremynd_v they_o in_o their_o heart_n there_o be_v which_o think_v themselves_o discharge_v when_o they_o have_v say_v oh_o my_o god_n have_v pity_n upon_o i_o i_o have_v be_v such_o a_o one_o i_o have_v do_v such_o a_o evil_a deed_n true_a it_o be_v that_o such_o man_n have_v some_o feel_n in_o themselves_o and_o speak_v not_o altogether_o through_o hypocrisy_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v much_o wind_n in_o they_o and_o their_o mouth_n be_v large_a than_o their_o heart_n for_o scarce_o have_v they_o taste_v of_o god_n mercy_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v have_v man_n to_o think_v that_o they_o have_v feel_v it_o thorough_o and_o that_o they_o be_v full_o fraught_v with_o it_o but_o there_o be_v vanity_n and_o ambition_n in_o such_o

to_o have_v consider_v well_o what_o we_o have_v see_v afore_o that_o be_v too_o say_v too_o have_v examine_v well_o ourselves_o too_o have_v be_v diligent_a in_o search_v how_o wretched_a we_o be_v

of_o the_o ancient_a father_n we_o have_v afar_o better_a recompense_n which_o ought_v to_o comfort_v we_o for_o example_n let_v we_o take_v but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v say_v concern_v long_a

the_o sovereign_n good_a thing_n it_o be_v not_o the_o true_a and_o perfect_a happiness_n no_o it_o come_v far_o short_a of_o it_o but_o we_o must_v also_o add_v the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n know_v not_o yet_o so_o perfect_o as_o we_o do_v that_o god_n have_v prepare_v they_o a_o heritage_n in_o heaven_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o have_v some_o

adays_o our_o life_n be_v short_a and_o that_o be_v because_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o and_o have_v show_v we_o that_o we_o be_v but_o stranger_n in_o this_o world_n that_o we_o

whensoever_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o take_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o of_o job_n and_o abraham_n that_o they_o die_v old_a

many_o trouble_n thus_o we_o see_v brief_o what_o be_v contain_v here_o very_o job_n intent_n be_v not_o too_o plead_v against_o god_n as_o if_o he_o will_v go_v to_o law_n with_o he_o but_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n the_o grief_n that_o he_o sustain_v carry_v he_o so_o farforth_o that_o these_o complaint_n pass_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n how_o now_o wherefore_o have_v god_n set_v we_o in_o this_o world_n be_v it_o not_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v bliss_n he_o because_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o he_o have_v a_o

point_n it_o seem_v that_o he_o will_v have_v his_o name_n to_o be_v blaspheme_v what_o can_v they_o do_v who_o he_o handle_v so_o rigorous_o when_o they_o see_v death_n before_o their_o eye_n or_o rather_o have_v it_o between_o their_o tooth_n they_o can_v not_o but_o fret_v and_o chafe_v at_o it_o thus_o we_o see_v a_o occasion_n of_o murmur_v against_o god_n and_o it_o seem_v that_o he_o himself_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o here_o we_o have_v a_o very_a good_a and_o profitable_a lesson_n which_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o when_o god_n scourge_v we_o yet_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o give_v we_o some_o taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o our_o affliction_n we_o may_v still_o praise_v he_o and_o rejoice_v in_o he_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o restrain_v our_o joy_n &_o turn_v they_o into_o bitterness_n but_o there_o be_v a_o mean_a betwixt_o blessing_n of_o god_n name_n and_o blaspheme_v of_o it_o which_o mean_a be_v to_o call_v upon_o he_o when_o we_o be_v oppress_v with_o adversity_n and_o to_o resort_v unto_o he_o desire_v he_o to_o receive_v we_o unto_o mercy_n but_o man_n can_v never_o keep_v this_o mean_a except_o god_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o it_o of_o himself_o when_o he_o scourge_v we_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v first_o that_o whensoever_o god_n send_v we_o any_o trouble_n and_o sorrow_n he_o cease_v not_o to_o make_v we_o taste_v of_o his_o goodness_n therewithal_o to_o assuage_v the_o anguish_n that_o may_v hold_v our_o heart_n in_o distress_n how_o be_v that_o we_o have_v show_v heretofore_o that_o if_o man_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o god_n former_a benefit_n towards_o they_o yea_o though_o it_o be_v but_o in_o that_o he_o have_v sustain_v they_o from_o their_o childhood_n after_o he_o have_v bring_v they_o out_o of_o their_o mother_n womb_n and_o give_v they_o life_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o comfort_v they_o even_o when_o they_o be_v overload_v with_o despair_n and_o to_o make_v they_o think_v may_v not_o god_n punish_v we_o just_o for_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o bear_v patient_o the_o adversity_n that_o he_o send_v and_o nature_n teach_v we_o so_o to_o do_v forasmuch_o as_o he_o bestow_v so_o many_o
he_o mean_v that_o we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v throw_v headlong_o into_o death_n at_o every_o blow_n and_o that_o we_o can_v not_o set_v forth_o one_o step_n but_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o we_o be_v utter_o undo_v but_o god_n have_v the_o issue_n of_o death_n in_o his_o hand_n say_v he_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o these_o sentence_n that_o we_o may_v be_v thorough_o fence_v when_o the_o devil_n shall_v come_v to_o blow_v in_o our_o ear_n and_o who_o be_v thou_o see_v thou_o not_o how_o thou_o have_v no_o succour_n from_o above_o the_o righteous_a perish_v not_o to_o bar_v satan_n of_o his_o purpose_n let_v we_o have_v these_o answer_n ready_a it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o righteous_a perish_v not_o neither_o be_o i_o perish_v but_o thou_o be_v as_o good_a as_o a_o dead_a man_n say_v the_o dieul_n and_o my_o god_n let_v we_o say_v be_v he_o thathath_fw-mi the_o issue_n of_o death_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o david_n mean_v in_o a_o other_o text_n say_v though_o i_o be_v in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n thy_o sheephooj_n o_o lord_n shall_v guide_v i_o because_o i_o always_o put_v my_o trust_n in_o thou_o if_o thou_o be_v my_o protector_n i_o shall_v be_v exempt_v from_o all_o evil_a thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o practice_v this_o lesson_n and_o here_o it_o ensue_v that_o such_o as_o sow_v extortion_n or_o labour_n extortion_n and_o such_o as_o sow_v encumbrance_n shall_v gather_v the_o same_o which_o thing_n be_v confirm_v by_o a_o similitude_n for_o eliphas_n say_v that_o the_o roar_a of_o the_o lion_n be_v stint_v that_o their_o tooth_n be_v break_v and_o that_o their_o whelp_n be_v destitute_a of_o prey_n whereby_o he_o mean_v that_o such_o as_o have_v be_v full_a of_o cruelty_n and_o extortion_n shall_v be_v daunt_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n but_o somewhat_o afore_o he_o have_v say_v that_o the_o wicked_a have_v perish_v at_o the_o blast_n of_o god_n and_o by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n as_o touch_v the_o former_a sentence_n where_o he_o say_v that_o such_o as_o labour_v for_o iniquity_n and_o sow_n trouble_v or_o encumbrance_n etc_n etc_n i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o similitude_n take_v of_o the_o

speak_v of_o such_o as_o do_v nothing_o but_o toss_v and_o turmoil_n other_o man_n and_o first_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o plough_v because_o that_o they_o which_o be_v so_o desirous_a to_o annoy_v their_o neighbour_n and_o to_o do_v they_o some_o harm_n do_v make_v preparative_n like_v as_o when_o the_o laborour_n intend_v to_o sow_v his_o ground_n he_o must_v first_o plough_v it_o and_o the_o earth_n must_v first_o be_v till_v even_o so_o the_o wicked_a consult_v aforehand_o upon_o their_o ungraciousness_n treachery_n and_o unlawful_a do_n devise_v guile_n and_o deceit_n and_o afterward_o when_o they_o have_v lay_v the_o whole_a platform_n they_o seek_v all_o mean_n possible_a to_o put_v their_o lewd_a enterprise_n in_o execution_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a labour_a or_o tillage_n that_o eliphas_n speak_v of_o here_o for_o he_o say_v that_o hereupon_o they_o sow_v encumbrance_n that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o they_o have_v make_v their_o preparation_n they_o run_v upon_o poor_a man_n to_o fleece_v they_o and_o to_o eat_v they_o up_o but_o these_o man_n say_v he_o do_v reap_v that_o which_o they_o have_v sow_v that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n make_v all_o the_o mischief_n which_o they_o have_v conceive_v and_o invent_v against_o other_o to_o light_v upon_o their_o own_o head_n we_o see_v here_o a_o sentence_n that_o be_v true_a and_o we_o must_v take_v it_o as_o speak_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n even_o to_o gather_v a_o general_a lesson_n thereof_o and_o to_o put_v it_o to_o the_o true_a use_n we_o must_v pray_v god_n to_o grant_v we_o the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n in_o that_o behalf_n that_o we_o may_v not_o wrest_v the_o scripture_n this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n to_o draw_v it_o to_o a_o contrary_a sense_n as_o wesee_v that_o eliphas_n have_v do_v but_o whereas_o the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v that_o such_o as_o plough_v iniquity_n and_o sow_v encumbrance_n shall_v reap_v the_o same_o it_o be_v a_o threaten_v which_o god_n utter_v against_o the_o wicked_a who_o think_v to_o advance_v themselves_o high_o when_o they_o play_v the_o ravenous_a beast_n fleece_v one_o man_n and_o eat_v up_o another_o special_o when_o they_o devour_v all_o seem_v to_o themselves_o to_o be_v jolly_a conqueror_n and_o stand_v in_o their_o own_o conceit_n for_o do_v so_o but_o our_o lord_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o beguile_v themselves_o very_o much_o for_o he_o make_v all_o their_o enterprise_n to_o turn_v to_o their_o own_o confusion_n wherefore_o you_o see_v a_o threaten_a whereby_o god_n purpose_v to_o repress_v the_o over_o boldness_n and_o maliciousness_n of_o man_n mind_v to_o hold_v they_o short_a to_o the_o intent_n they_o may_v live_v togiether_o in_o all_o good_a love_n and_o upright_o deal_n so_o as_o no_o man_n may_v labour_v to_o hinder_v his_o neighbour_n like_v as_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n we_o hear_v also_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v give_v we_o in_o these_o word_n he_o that_o sow_v blessedness_n

neighbour_n and_o to_o succour_v they_o now_o see_v we_o the_o true_a use_n of_o this_o lesson_n which_o be_v that_o we_o must_v keep_v ourselves_o well_o from_o practyze_a any_o annoyance_n or_o deceit_n and_o why_o so_o so_o little_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o advance_v ourselves_o by_o these_o wicked_a practyze_n or_o other_o unlawful_a mean_n that_o god_n shall_v put_v we_o to_o

labour_n to_o do_v well_o so_o as_o every_o one_o of_o we_o may_v not_o only_o abstain_v from_o all_o misdeal_a but_o also_o consider_v that_o if_o god_n have_v give_v we_o any_o ability_n we_o must_v profit_v one_o another_o and_o communicate_v mutual_o altogether_o and_o hereunto_o let_v we_o also_o gather_v together_o the_o sentence_n of_o holy_a scripture_n which_o tend_v to_o the_o same_o end_n curse_a be_v thou_o that_o rob_v for_o thou_o shall_v be_v rob_v when_o thy_o turn_n come_v about_o and_o afterward_o look_v what_o measure_n man_n make_v the_o same_o shall_v be_v give_v they_o again_o when_o we_o hear_v all_o these_o say_n let_v we_o understand_v that_o god_n do_v evermore_o turn_v all_o the_o mischief_n that_o wicked_a man_n have_v devise_v upon_o themselves_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o wicked_a person_n say_v he_o shall_v fall_v into_o the_o pit_n that_o he_o have_v dig_v and_o afterward_o judgement_n without_o mercy_n shall_v he_o have_v which_o be_v merciless_a and_o unpitifull_a when_o we_o hear_v such_o sentence_n let_v we_o tremble_v and_o be_v circumspect_a to_o walk_v so_o just_o and_o upright_o with_o our_o neighbour_n as_o man_n may_v know_v that_o we_o be_v continual_o restrain_v by_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o effect_n in_o this_o sentence_n but_o by_o the_o way_n if_o a_o man_n be_v vex_v after_o he_o have_v do_v good_a or_o if_o he_o be_v persecute_v when_o he_o seek_v to_o live_v in_o peace_n and_o concord_n with_o his_o neighbour_n we_o must_v not_o conclude_v that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o company_n of_o those_o which_o gather_v trouble_v and_o encumbrance_n because_o they_o have_v sow_v it_o and_o why_o so_o for_o we_o hear_v how_o the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v the_o

like_a befall_v to_o job_n child_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o we_o must_v not_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o person_n here_o we_o must_v not_o only_o receive_v the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v that_o as_o oft_o as_o god_n stretch_v out_o his_o arm_n too_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o all_o but_o he_o ought_v to_o tremble_v and_o whensoever_o we_o shall_v

upon_o all_o such_o as_o advance_v themselves_o to_o resist_v he_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o saint_n paul_n turn_v his_o speech_n to_o the_o faithful_a say_v be_v you_o not_o deceive_v by_o

nothing_o else_o but_o shift_n to_o flatter_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o fault_n and_o evil_a do_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n saint_n paul_n say_v my_o friend_n let_v not_o man_n deceive_v you_o

the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v that_o god_n send_v all_o rebel_n to_o the_o place_n of_o their_o iniquity_n and_o true_a it_o be_v that_o some_o be_v to_o be_v find_v so_o foolish_a and_o madbrayn_v as_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o maintain_v the_o case_n of_o the_o wicked_a against_o god_n but_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n shall_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o his_o creature_n let_v

long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v and_o to_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o see_v the_o calamity_n and_o

because_o man_n consider_v not_o why_o god_n scourge_v they_o and_o beat_v they_o after_o that_o fashion_n again_o we_o see_v man_n be_v besot_v with_o such_o a_o presumptuousness_n yea_o and_o with_o such_o a_o foolish_a rage_n as_o they_o think_v themselves_o always_o able_a to_o justify_v themselves_o fore_o god_n then_o see_v that_o this_o pride_n be_v so_o deep_o root_v in_o our_o nature_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o provoke_v to_o make_v the_o say_a petition_n which_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n shall_v show_v we_o wherefore_o he_o

with_o we_o no_o death_n can_v be_v dreadful_a unto_o we_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o david_n say_v that_o god_n sheephooj_n shall_v comfort_v he_o in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o in_o the_o darkness_n when_o as_o he_o speak_v of_o god_n sheephooj_v he_o mean_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v afraid_a of_o nothing_o so_o long_o as_o god_n show_v himself_o a_o shepherd_n towards_o he_o and_o how_o shall_v he_o show_v himself_o a_o shepherd_n but_o in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n so_o then_o let_v we_o first_o consider_v of_o what_o mind_n job_n speak_v here_o

according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n that_o god_n turn_v the_o darkness_n into_o light_a see_v we_o know_v this_o we_o have_v too_o rejoice_v in_o that_o by_o

go_v to_o he_o bear_v with_o they_o and_o forgive_v they_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o will_v afflict_v we_o for_o some_o other_o cause_n as_o befall_v unto_o job._n true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o be_v a_o wretched_a sinner_n &_o that_o god_n according_a to_o his_o law_n may_v have_v punish_v he_o extreme_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o have_v no_o such_o respect_n we_o have_v see_v afore_o that_o god_n punish_v not_o job_n sin_n as_o of_o set_a purpose_n to_o punish_v he_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o will_v punish_v this_o man_n because_o he_o have_v deserve_v it_o or_o because_o he_o have_v live_v naughty_o no_o god_n have_v no_o such_o respect_n with_o he_o what_o then_o he_o intend_v that_o job_n shall_v be_v a_o mirror_n to_o all_o man_n to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o we_o behold_v he_o we_o may_v have_v occasion_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o know_v that_o god_n hand_n be_v too_o heavy_a for_o we_o to_o bear_v &_o also_o consider_v our_o own_o frailty_n

eye_n to_o the_o patientness_n of_o the_o man_n god_n then_o mean_v to_o use_v job_n to_o all_o these_o matter_n and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o his_o intent_n be_v not_o to_o punish_v he_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o job_n say_v that_o if_o he_o have_v leave_v to_o speak_v and_o to_o open_v his_o case_n at_o large_a he_o shall_v be_v find_v righteous_a according_a to_o god_n intent_n that_o be_v to_o say_v as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o present_a affliction_n that_o he_o endure_v god_n shall_v not_o find_v any_o iniquity_n in_o he_o in_o that_o behalf_n but_o contrariwise_o allow_v he_o for_o one_o of_o his_o servant_n but_o job_n in_o so_o say_v reject_v not_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n whereupon_o all_o our_o righteousness_n be_v found_v we_o say_v that_o man_n

all_o of_o we_o abide_v shame_n and_o confusion_n for_o this_o cause_n it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n to_o borrow_v a_o righteousness_n that_o god_n may_v like_v and_o allow_v which_o thing_n be_v do_v when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n clothe_v we_o with_o his_o own_o righteousness_n and_o the_o same_o be_v allow_v we_o before_o god_n you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o become_v righteous_a by_o

be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o
with_o god_n they_o use_v the_o same_o and_o will_v god_n it_o be_v not_o so_o common_a as_o it_o be_v but_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v too_o common_a and_o man_n know_v well_o enough_o of_o who_o i_o

see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o thou_o dispose_v of_o we_o at_o thy_o good_a pleasure_n give_v we_o the_o grace_n to_o live_v and_o die_v according_a to_o thy_o good_a will_n that_o we_o may_v not_o

in_o all_o point_n as_o thou_o command_v we_o according_a too_o that_o which_o be_v say_v in_o the_o one_o and_o ninty_v psalm_n that_o god_n will_v send_v his_o angel_n too_o guard_v we_o that_o we_o

as_o these_o unthrift_n do_v who_o will_v not_o by_o any_o mean_n submit_v themselves_o unto_o god_n therefore_o whensoever_o we_o abide_v in_o the_o way_n that_o he_o show_v we_o then_o be_v we_o guard_v by_o he_o and_o his_o angel_n this_o do_v we_o must_v also_o conceive_v a_o good_a and_o holy_a hardiness_n when_o god_n will_v have_v we_o too_o enter_v into_o any_o danger_n as_o how_o we_o see_v at_o this_o this_o day_n what_o the_o state_n of_o the_o poor_a christian_n be_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o they_o be_v as_o sheep_n in_o the_o wolf_n mouth_n now_o if_o we_o shall_v go_v about_o too_o excuse_v ourselves_o from_o serve_v of_o god_n and_o forbear_v too_o confess_v our_o faith_n because_o it_o can_v be_v do_v without_o jeopardy_n of_o our_o life_n suppose_v you_o that_o

give_v over_o the_o service_n of_o god_n because_o they_o shun_v the_o cross_n and_o why_o be_v that_o their_o unbelief_n be_v the_o ground_n thereof_o because_o they_o know_v not_o or_o at_o

that_o point_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v the_o bold_a to_o spend_v ourselves_o when_o it_o stand_v upon_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o performance_n of_o our_o duty_n according_a as_o become_v every_o man_n in_o his_o degree_n i_o say_v we_o shall_v have_v another_o manner_n of_o constancy_n and_o stoutness_n than_o we_o have_v true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o must_v not_o make_v we_o rash_a in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o shall_v go_v seek_v danger_n of_o our_o own_o head_n and_o without_o advice_n but_o whensoever_o need_n shall_v require_v we_o shall_v not_o

doctrine_n be_v great_o for_o our_o profit_n let_v we_o determine_v too_o bear_v it_o well_o in_o mind_n and_o thereupon_o conclude_v according_a also_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o very_a hair_n of_o our_o head_n be_v number_v and_o that_o god_n hold_v we_o in_o such_o wise_n in_o his_o custody_n as_o we_o need_v not_o to_o fear_v that_o any_o thing_n can_v happen_v unto_o we_o without_o his_o good_a pleasure_n true_a it_o be_v that_o satan_n assay_v all_o the_o mean_n he_o can_v and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o see_v that_o man_n make_v full_a reckon_n to_o turn_v all_o upside_o down_o and_o it_o shall_v seem_v they_o will_v confound_v heaven_n and_o earth_n together_o yea_o but_o when_o they_o have_v do_v their_o uttermost_a they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o take_v away_o our_o life_n except_o god_n give_v they_o leave_v and_o be_v willing_a therewith_o and_o how_o can_v we_o withstand_v they_o so_o then_o let_v we_o look_v only_o what_o god_n command_v we_o let_v we_o look_v what_o our_o calling_n and_o duty_n bear_v to_o do_v and_o let_v every_o man_n employ_v himself_o faithful_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o shall_v finish_v our_o

add_v that_o there_o be_v hope_n in_o a_o tree_n when_o a_o tree_n be_v cut_v he_o may_v spring_v again_o and_o special_o if_o he_o have_v nourishment_n of_o water_n he_o may_v forishe_v a_o fresh_a but_o there_o be_v not_o the_o like_a hope_n of_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v once_o dead_a he_o be_v past_a recovery_n say_v he_o and_o therefore_o god_n ought_v to_o have_v pity_n of_o so_o po●re_v a_o creature_n here_o at_o the_o first_o blush_v it_o may_v seem_v strange_a that_o job_n cut_v off_o all_o hope_n from_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v once_o dead_a for_o it_o seem_v that_o here_o be_v no_o remembrance_n of_o the_o everlasting_a life_n as_o though_o man_n soul_n die_v with_o their_o body_n but_o let_v we_o note_v first_o of_o all_o that_o when_o job_n speak_v of_o man_n he_o speak_v in_o his_o passion_n and_o torment_n as_o we_o have_v see_v already_o and_o therefore_o he_o have_v no_o further_a respect_n but_o to_o this_o present_a life_n according_a as_o when_o we_o be_v press_v with_o any_o misery_n our_o mind_n run_v upon_o nothing_o but_o that_o if_o it_o be_v summertime_n and_o we_o be_v overwhot_v we_o think_v that_o hard_a frost_n be_v the_o pleasant_a &_o wholesome_a thing_n that_o can_v be_v and_o why_o because_o we_o be_v forepossess_v with_o the_o passion_n that_o grieve_v and_o torment_v we_o so_o then_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n hand_n be_v so_o sore_o upon_o job_n he_o have_v none_o other_o regard_n but_o to_o get_v out_o of_o his_o present_a pain_n and_o as_o for_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o life_n to_o come_v he_o mind_v it_o not_o at_o all_o and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v what_o man_n be_v when_o they_o be_v trouble_v after_o that_o sort_n with_o adversity_n if_o god_n do_v not_o relieve_v they_o and_o strengthen_v they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o job_n can_v be_v
send_v we_o nowadays_o but_o too_o call_v we_o to_o repentance_n now_o if_o god_n shall_v tarry_v till_o we_o be_v dead_a the_o gate_n will_v be_v shut_v there_o will_v be_v no_o time_n of_o return_v unto_o he_o behold_v say_v saint_n paul_n the_o acceptable_a day_n &_o the_o day_n of_o salvation_n be_v while_o we_o be_v in_o our_o way_n then_o if_o god_n shall_v see_v man_n go_v astray_o &_o

that_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o reason_v contrary_a too_o that_o which_o job_n do_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o see_v our_o life_n be_v short_a &_o not_o in_o so_o good_a case_n as_o a_o

to_o do_v yet_o fail_v we_o not_o to_o be_v move_v to_o have_v our_o flesh_n too_o show_v itself_o somewhat_o rebellious_a in_o we_o therefore_o we_o can_v come_v unto_o god_n too_o serve_v he_o but_o we_o shall_v be_v assail_v and_o prick_v on_o all_o side_n but_o what_o for_o that_o we_o must_v still_o fight_v according_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o we_o shall_v get_v no_o victory_n but_o

our_o whole_a force_n so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o whereas_o job_n speak_v here_o of_o the_o life_n of_o man_n as_o a_o person_n without_o regard_n of_o the_o resurrection_n to_o come_v he_o rest_v not_o whole_o upon_o that_o point_n for_o he_o have_v well_o foresee_v what_o that_o be_v but_o mean_v to_o express_v the_o passion_n that_o he_o feel_v to_o the_o end_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v bethink_v himself_o and_o not_o be_v carry_v away_o when_o such_o temptation_n befall_v we_o moreover_o if_o job_n be_v weaken_v after_o that_o sort_n let_v we_o assure_v our_o self_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v weaken_v much_o more_o howbeit_o god_n which_o assist_v he_o will_v do_v the_o like_a for_o we_o also_o for_o his_o power_n be_v as_o invincible_a to_o maintain_v we_o at_o this_o day_n as_o it_o be_v then_o he_o call_v we_o too_o he_o at_o this_o day_n even_o of_o his_o own_o goodness_n which_o be_v not_o abate_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o make_v we_o to_o feel_v it_o as_o well_o as_o he_o make_v his_o servant_n of_o old_a time_n to_o feel_v it_o and_o therefore_o when_o we_o see_v all_o thing_n so_o confound_v nowadays_o in_o the_o world_n as_o we_o wot_v not_o

to_o wait_v for_o the_o day_n of_o my_o change_n see_v then_o in_o effect_n after_o what_o sort_n job_n understand_v that_o say_n he_o rather_o reason_v with_o himself_o and_o with_o god_n whether_o a_o man_n shall_v return_v to_o life_n again_o when_o he_o be_v dead_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o see_v myself_o here_o in_o so_o â–ª_o wretched_a state_n as_o too_o my_o own_o seem_n i_o must_v

these_o politic_a head_n therefore_o which_o be_v so_o desirous_a to_o work_v wile_n with_o god_n begin_v at_o this_o point_n namely_o of_o take_v leave_n to_o keep_v man_n from_o see_v what_o the_o

that_o those_o who_o god_n have_v leave_v at_o that_o point_n shall_v ever_o return_v to_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o beware_v that_o we_o hold_v ourselves_o strait_o

first_o of_o all_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n have_v make_v he_o as_o it_o be_v a_o mockingstocke_n &_o that_o he_o be_v set_v to_o be_v a_o gazingstock_n and_o for_o man_n to_o make_v tale_n of_o for_o the_o second_o word_n which_o he_o use_v which_o i_o have_v translate_v gazingstocke_n signify_v a_o timbrel_n and_o mark_v here_o how_o some_o man_n have_v think_v that_o job_n mean_v to_o

some_o translate_v it_o hell_n and_o whereas_o i_o have_v translate_v open_a it_o be_v before_o they_o or_o in_o their_o sight_n and_o so_o their_o opinion_n be_v that_o job_n mean_v too_o say_v that_o man_n have_v damn_v he_o as_o a_o wretched_a creature_n before_o the_o time_n but_o when_o all_o be_v well_o consider_v the_o plain_a meaning_n be_v that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v for_o it_o

that_o he_o intend_v to_o set_v down_o be_v that_o in_o asmuch_o as_o god_n have_v make_v he_o as_o a_o mirror_n of_o adversity_n if_o we_o shall_v esteem_v man_n in_o god_n favour_n or_o

that_o he_o be_v not_o utter_o without_o feel_v but_o what_o infirmity_n soever_o he_o have_v in_o he_o yet_o do_v he_o fight_v against_o they_o and_o be_v sure_a and_o full_o resolve_v that_o god_n

righteous_a shall_v be_v astonish_v at_o it_o but_o yet_o nevertheless_o the_o innocent_a shall_v lift_v up_o himself_o against_o the_o hypocrite_n &_o the_o righteous_a shall_v hold_v on_o their_o

when_o we_o see_v the_o adversity_n that_o god_n send_v too_o such_o as_o have_v serve_v he_o and_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n with_o a_o pure_a conscience_n we_o think_v it_o strange_a and_o be_v

and_o such_o as_o have_v endeavour_v to_o walk_v pure_o before_o he_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v handle_v they_o as_o a_o father_n do_v his_o child_n and_o if_o we_o see_v they_o afflict_v extreme_o at_o god_n hand_n we_o imagine_v either_o that_o he_o have_v turn_v his_o back_n &_o will_v not_o think_v upon_o earthly_a thing_n or_o else_o that_o he_o pass_v not_o how_o man_n live_v nor_o how_o they_o behave_v themselves_o this_o then_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o we_o be_v oftentimes_o astonish_v at_o the_o adversity_n of_o righteous_a man_n when_o god_n seem_v to_o show_v himself_o their_o enemy_n and_o they_o see_v nothing_o but_o sign_n of_o cruelty_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o job_n speak_v of_o astonishment_n howbeit_o he_o say_v that_o yet_o nevertheless_o the_o

there_o be_v not_o a_o sentence_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v better_a than_o this_o why_o so_o for_o we_o know_v by_o experience_n how_o hard_o it_o be_v for_o man_n to_o judge_v aright_o of_o god_n do_n as_o in_o respect_n of_o that_o which_o we_o see_v present_o for_o as_o have_v be_v declare_v more_o full_o already_o god_n execute_v not_o his_o judgement_n after_o such_o sort_n in_o this_o world_n as_o that_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v well_o rule_v and_o nothing_o out_o of_o square_a but_o contrariwise_o thing_n be_v confound_v and_o if_o we_o see_v a_o wicked_a man_n punish_v a_o righteous_a man_n be_v punish_v much_o more_o and_o if_o we_o see_v a_o good_a man_n prosper_v a_o wicked_a man_n shall_v prosper_v
the_o grace_n of_o god_n if_o it_o please_v our_o lord_n we_o shall_v be_v feed_v though_o there_o want_v bread_n drink_n &_o meat_n according_a as_o he_o say_v he_o will_v feed_v those_o that_o be_v

to_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o it_o &_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o have_v neither_o strength_n nor_o sustenance_n but_o by_o the_o spread_a out_o of_o god_n goodness_n upon_o we_o which_o be_v the_o thing_n from_o whence_o we_o draw_v life_n and_o the_o mean_v whereby_o we_o be_v preserve_v and_o maintain_v in_o our_o state_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o settle_v our_o whole_a trust_n upon_o that_o furthermore_o when_o we_o see_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v strong_a let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o last_v ever_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o must_v not_o

let_v we_o mark_v here_o that_o this_o word_n the_o firstborn_a of_o death_n carry_v in_o it_o a_o great_a force_n when_o a_o man_n be_v hold_v as_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o rack_n and_o that_o god_n

say_v it_o shall_v happen_v after_o that_o manner_n to_o the_o wicked_a true_a it_o be_v that_o all_o of_o we_o be_v mortal_a and_o that_o god_n have_v put_v we_o into_o this_o world_n with_o

what_o must_v be_v do_v then_o let_v every_o man_n dispose_v himself_o to_o die_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n do_v we_o a_o inestimable_a grace_n in_o voutchsafe_v to_o deliver_v we_o from_o

that_o be_v in_o it_o and_o here_o you_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n wherein_o we_o differ_v from_o the_o unbeliever_n be_v that_o although_o both_o of_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o pass_v through_o

thus_o you_o see_v what_o our_o belief_n must_v be_v if_o it_o be_v well_o rule_v and_o if_o we_o be_v once_o so_o well_o dispose_v we_o may_v say_v with_o job_n well_o very_o i_o see_v my_o body_n

we_o see_v that_o our_o strength_n droup_v and_o vanish_v away_o by_o little_a and_o little_a that_o although_o it_o please_v god_n to_o smite_v we_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o shall_v in_o manner_n

not_o cease_v look_v unto_o his_o god_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o trust_v in_o god_n still_o after_o the_o example_n of_o job._n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o

say_v if_o we_o consider_v well_o to_o what_o end_n he_o have_v create_v we_o and_o still_o maintain_v we_o in_o the_o world_n furthermore_o when_o job_n say_v that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o

therefore_o let_v we_o say_v i_o trust_v in_o god_n because_o i_o see_v he_o assist_v i_o and_o fail_v i_o not_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o when_o god_n fail_v we_o and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v estrange_v

our_o wit_n and_o spirit_n to_o resist_v satan_n who_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o all_o iniquity_n the_o thing_n then_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o know_v be_v that_o when_o man_n go_v about_o to_o do_v we_o harm_n we_o must_v stand_v upon_o our_o guard_n and_o consider_v the_o force_n and_o strength_n that_o be_v in_o our_o enemy_n and_o if_o we_o can_v not_o overcome_v he_o by_o force_n we_o must_v fall_v to_o policy_n if_o we_o see_v
god_n will_v go_v through_o with_o his_o ordinance_n or_o determination_n his_o say_n then_o be_v he_o will_v go_v through_o with_o my_o ordinary_a or_o else_o he_o will_v go_v through_o with_o my_o

that_o we_o walk_v in_o such_o wise_a under_o the_o guide_n of_o our_o god_n that_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v there_o can_v one_o hear_v fall_n from_o our_o head_n but_o by_o his_o

in_o such_o wise_a that_o our_o life_n be_v no_o more_o in_o our_o hand_n than_o be_v our_o death_n insomuch_o that_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n for_o we_o too_o undertake_v one_o thing_n or_o

and_o it_o shall_v not_o boot_n i_o to_o strive_v against_o it_o but_o sure_o we_o must_v not_o begin_v at_o that_o end_n but_o before_o we_o speak_v of_o god_n ordinance_n let_v we_o first_o

heretofore_o for_o that_o be_v too_o make_v he_o like_o a_o tyrant_n and_o that_o be_v a_o curse_a blasphemy_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n in_o dispose_v and_o order_v all_o thing_n use_v a_o sovereign_a rule_n where_o by_o all_o other_o justice_n and_o righteousness_n must_v be_v square_v out_o nevertheless_o we_o must_v not_o do_v as_o these_o vainglorious_a folk_n do_v which_o

a_o blasphemousnesse_n be_v that_o be_v not_o such_o man_n worse_o than_o devil_n they_o be_v most_o ignorant_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v most_o busy_a in_o seek_v god_n secret_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o do_v perchance_o bear_v the_o countenance_n of_o great_a clerk_n but_o in_o very_a deed_n they_o be_v stark_a beast_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v needs_o have_v god_n to_o

to_o eternal_a life_n before_o the_o make_n of_o the_o world_n so_o then_o let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o such_o outrage_n and_o in_o acknowledge_v that_o all_o god_n do_n be_v rightful_a and_o good_a let_v we_o mark_v that_o his_o work_v shall_v oftentimes_o pass_v our_o understanding_n and_o yet_o that_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o encounter_v his_o will._n if_o god_n once_o do_v any_o

what_o do_v he_o but_o rob_v he_o of_o his_o glory_n for_o god_n will_v be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o reason_n and_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o righteousness_n therefore_o let_v we_o hold_v our_o

general_o the_o say_a justice_n and_o righteousness_n let_v we_o know_v also_o that_o god_n be_v so_o gracious_a unto_o we_o as_o to_o join_v and_o knit_v his_o justice_n to_o our_o salvation_n like_a as_o he_o have_v match_v his_o mightiness_n with_o it_o also_o when_o we_o say_v that_o god_n be_v almighty_a it_o be_v not_o only_o to_o honour_v he_o but_o also_o to_o rest_v upon_o he_o that_o we_o may_v be_v invincible_a against_o all_o temptation_n for_o inasmuch_o as_o god_n mighty_a power_n be_v infinite_a he_o can_v well_o maintain_v and_o preserve_v we_o in_o like_a case_n be_v it_o with_o his_o righteousness_n see_v then_o that_o there_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o inseparable_a knot_n between_o god_n justice_n and_o our_o salvation_n let_v we_o begin_v at_o that_o point_n to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o we_o say_v that_o god_n bring_v to_o pass_v what_o soever_o he_o list_v and_o that_o he_o will_v perform_v whatsoever_o he_o have_v determine_v of_o we_o we_o may_v also_o assure_v

and_o familiar_a exposition_n of_o this_o say_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n have_v foredetermine_v what_o he_o will_v have_v do_v both_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o everlasting_a salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n &_o also_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o present_a life_n as_o concern_v the_o first_o god_n choose_v we_o for_o his_o child_n before_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o whereunto_o

of_o his_o creature_n as_o say_v saint_n paul_n by_o shol_v we_o out_o to_o make_v we_o more_o excellent_a than_o our_o fellow_n we_o deserve_v to_o be_v cast_v away_o and_o damn_v and_o god_n have_v vouchsafe_v too_o draw_v we_o out_o of_o destruction_n you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o glorify_v god_n for_o that_o determination_n for_o somuch_o as_o it_o please_v he_o too_o choose_v we_o and_o too_o call_v we_o too_o salvation_n and_o to_o make_v we_o heir_n of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o this_o determination_n have_v be_v utter_v to_o we_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o if_o we_o be_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o be_v sure_a of_o our_o adoption_n then_o need_v we_o not_o to_o seek_v the_o register_n for_o it_o a_o loft_n in_o heaven_n but_o let_v

let_v we_o learn_v to_o honour_v the_o wisdom_n which_o we_o can_v comprehend_v and_o to_o say_v lord_n it_o be_v true_a that_o our_o flesh_n and_o our_o nature_n provoke_v we_o to_o grudge_v

so_o much_o more_o need_n to_o mark_v well_o this_o lesson_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o man_n cry_v from_o out_o of_o the_o city_n yea_o even_o they_o that_o be_v already_o at_o the_o point_n of_o

that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o be_v know_v of_o then_o let_v we_o reverence_v the_o wonderful_a secret_n of_o god_n sith_o it_o be_v not_o his_o will_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v the_o reason_n why_o

when_o the_o day_n come_v he_o think_v it_o to_o be_v the_o shadow_n of_o death_n the_o adulterer_n and_o whorehunter_n watch_v till_o the_o evening_n shut_v in_o that_o he_o may_v shrink_v into_o

regard_v it_o do_v not_o man_n wilful_o harden_v their_o heart_n against_o god_n warning_n and_o may_v it_o not_o well_o be_v say_v that_o satan_n have_v bewitch_v we_o yes_o but_o there_o be_v yet_o more_o for_o beside_o such_o warning_n god_n show_v we_o by_o his_o word_n what_o our_o fault_n be_v and_o make_v we_o to_o feel_v they_o and_o draw_v we_o to_o himself_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o we_o cease_v not_o to_o welter_v still_o in_o our_o own_o filth_n and_o to_o grow_v as_o it_o be_v senseless_a hereby_o therefore_o it_o appear_v that_o this_o lesson_n be_v very_o ill_o put_v

much_o as_o man_n labour_v to_o excuse_v and_o justify_v themselves_o in_o their_o evil_a do_n and_o yet_o can_v not_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v it_o stand_v every_o one_o of_o we_o in_o hand_n to_o

if_o a_o man_n have_v spend_v the_o night_n secret_o in_o whoredom_n if_o he_o have_v go_v a_o thieve_a if_o he_o have_v beguile_v his_o neighbour_n or_o if_o he_o have_v shut_v the_o door_n to_o he_o to_o practice_v some_o treason_n true_o man_n can_v not_o condemn_v he_o till_o his_o lewdness_n be_v know_v abroad_o but_o can_v he_o eschew_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o how_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v a_o two_o edge_a sword_n and_o enter_v through_o the_o bone_n and_o the_o maree_o so_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o

which_o s._n paul_n give_v we_o which_o be_v that_o sith_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n to_o enlighten_v we_o we_o be_v no_o more_o the_o child_n of_o darkness_n but_o of_o light_n such_o as_o have_v not_o god_n word_n think_v they_o have_v make_v a_o fair_a hand_n if_o their_o sin_n be_v once_o bury_v and_o come_v no_o more_o too_o their_o remembrance_n but_o what_o god_n do_v so_o enlighten_v we_o by_o his_o doctrine_n that_o we_o have_v daylight_n in_o the_o night_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o sun_n shall_v no_o more_o shine_v upon_o the_o church_n by_o day_n nor_o the_o moon_n by_o night_n but_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v the_o continual_a light_n of_o it_o true_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n continue_v always_o in_o his_o state_n but_o yet_o therewithal_o let_v a_o man_n lay_v himself_o in_o his_o bed_n or_o shut_v himself_o in_o his_o chamber_n or_o hide_v himself_o so_o close_o as_o no_o man_n may_v know_v what_o he_o say_v or_o what_o he_o do_v and_o yet_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v always_o shine_v upon_o he_o he_o can_v not_o quench_v the_o knowledge_n that_o god_n have_v give_v he_o and_o out_o of_o doubt_n although_o the_o scornful_a and_o heathenish_a sort_n labour_n to_o do_v it_o as_o we_o see_v how_o there_o be_v mad_a beast_n in_o these_o day_n which_o seek_v mthe_v but_o to_o abolish_v all_o religion_n yet_o will_v god_n have_v the_o say_a lamp_n of_o his_o word_n to_o burn_v always_o before_o they_o that_o they_o may_v perceive_v their_o own_o damnation_n by_o it_o then_o see_v that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o the_o doctrine_n of_o his_o gospel_n the_o brightness_n whereof_o we_o can_v not_o dim_a let_v we_o bethink_v ourselves_o and_o understand_v that_o when_o thief_n whoremaster_n and_o other_o evil_a doer_n seek_v covert_a they_o teach_v we_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o walk_v see_v that_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o we_o present_v with_o he_o and_o that_o he_o show_v himself_o as_o it_o be_v with_o open_a face_n either_o as_o our_o father_n or_o as_o our_o judge_n wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o dedicate_v our_o whole_a life_n unto_o he_o and_o whereas_o we_o see_v that_o such_o as_o will_v cover_v their_o evil_a do_n shun_v the_o light_n as_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o be_v glad_a when_o night_n come_v let_v we_o use_v the_o light_n that_o be_v give_v we_o to_o keep_v we_o from_o stray_v out_o of_o our_o way_n and_o from_o swerve_v aside_o special_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n call_v we_o and_o reach_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o draw_v we_o to_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o the_o grace_n that_o god_n give_v we_o in_o make_v we_o to_o know_v our_o sin_n and_o wretchedness_n by_o mean_n of_o his_o gospel_n furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o like_o as_o the_o wicked_a do_v hate_v the_o light_n of_o the_o day_n and_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o the_o sun_n be_v pluck_v out_o of_o the_o sky_n to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v always_o have_v freedom_n to_o do_v evil_a so_o do_v they_o much_o more_o shun_v the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o the_o cause_n why_o the_o same_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v so_o ill_o receive_v of_o the_o world_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v it_o be_v a_o wonder_n how_o that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o stubborn_a against_o god_n special_o see_v he_o send_v his_o own_o son_n to_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o offer_v we_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n desire_v we_o with_o a_o great_a gentleness_n and_o friendliness_n as_o can_v be_v how_o can_v it_o be_v will_n many_o say_v that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o stubborn_a as_o to_o forsake_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n be_v it_o not_o a_o outrageous_a churlishness_n yes_o certain_o be_v it_o but_o behold_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o world_n hate_v the_o gospel_n be_v because_o that_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v who_o so_o ever_o do_v evil_a hate_v the_o light_n now_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o that_o most_o man_n give_v themselves_o to_o all_o evil_a yea_o and_o oven_n they_o that_o be_v convict_v of_o their_o wilfulness_n cease_v not_o too_o harden_v themselves_o but_o will_v fain_o shut_v their_o eye_n to_o spite_n god_n with_o all_o their_o heart_n then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o be_v it_o any_o wonder_n that_o man_n be_v loath_a to_o taste_v of_o the_o gospel_n or_o to_o bite_v of_o it_o but_o rather_o play_v the_o mad_a bedlam_n aught_v it_o to_o be_v think_v strange_a no_o for_o we_o see_v that_o thief_n murderer_n whoremonger_n and_o all_o other_o evil_a doer_n can_v well_o find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o have_v the_o sun_n darken_v and_o that_o it_o shall_v no_o more_o shine_v in_o the_o world_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o brightness_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v yet_o far_o great_a for_o that_o serve_v not_o to_o gyude_v our_o eye_n only_o and_o to_o show_v we_o the_o way_n outward_o but_o it_o enter_v even_o into_o our_o secret_a thought_n and_o must_v examine_v that_o which_o be_v hide_v in_o the_o very_a bottom_n of_o our_o heart_n so_o then_o you_o see_v why_o the_o wicked_a be_v loath_a to_o come_v to_o this_o doctrine_n or_o to_o frame_v themselves_o by_o any_o mean_n unto_o it_o but_o yet_o must_v we_o on_o our_o side_n deal_v clean_o contrariwise_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o and_o therefore_o as_o touch_v the_o order_n of_o nature_n when_o god_n make_v his_o daisunne_n to_o shine_v let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o every_o man_n shall_v give_v himself_o to_o goodness_n and_o do_v his_o duty_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n again_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v walk_v according_a to_o our_o call_n and_o state_n every_o manserue_n god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n all_o the_o day_n long_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o must_v not_o abuse_v the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n to_o liberty_n of_o do_v evil_a and_o why_o for_o the_o lamp_n of_o god_n word_n never_o go_v out_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o therefore_o both_o day_n and_o night_n let_v we_o be_v the_o child_n of_o light_n and_o let_v we_o awake_v and_o be_v enlighten_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v i_o say_v let_v we_o not_o fall_v asleep_a by_o soothe_v ourselves_o in_o our_o sin_n neither_o let_v we_o think_v ourselves_o to_o be_v innocent_a before_o god_n but_o rather_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o quicken_v up_o himself_o and_o not_o be_v drown_v in_o our_o own_o conceit_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v past_a shame_n of_o do_v of_o evil_a but_o let_v we_o be_v sober_a
not_o only_o in_o eat_v and_o drink_v but_o also_o in_o all_o our_o desire_n and_o lust_n and_o let_v we_o so_o bridle_v they_o as_o we_o may_v cut_v off_o all_o the_o superfluous_a concupiscence_n that_o draw_v we_o unto_o evil_a thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o sentence_n now_o hereunto_o job_n add_v for_o a_o end_n that_o the_o wicked_a be_v lightfooted_a upon_o the_o water_n and_o glide_v away_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o that_o they_o go_v to_o the_o grave_a like_a as_o the_o earth_n dry_v in_o say_v he_o and_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n suck_v up_o the_o snow_n and_o all_o the_o moisture_n that_o be_v in_o it_o so_o do_v the_o grave_n swallow_v up_o the_o wicked_a it_o seem_v that_o job_n show_v here_o that_o god_n punish_v all_o the_o evil_a deed_n that_o be_v do_v in_o the_o world_n and_o that_o there_o in_o he_o agree_v with_o eliphas_n but_o his_o meaning_n be_v far_o otherwise_o for_o his_o intent_n be_v too_o show_v in_o effect_n that_o the_o wicked_a perish_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o a_o man_n can_v not_o perceive_v god_n hand_n apparent_o upon_o they_o to_o say_v behold_v god_n punish_v such_o a_o man_n by_o cause_n he_o have_v live_v amiss_o but_o contrariwise_o that_o the_o wicked_a soak_v away_o like_a water_n and_o leave_v no_o remembrance_n of_o themselves_o behind_o they_o they_o go_v to_o the_o grave_n yea_o and_o so_o do_v good_a man_n too_o so_o then_o we_o see_v how_o job_n conclude_v here_o that_o god_n do_v not_o so_o execute_v his_o justice_n in_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o man_n as_o it_o may_v always_o be_v see_v and_o heerewithall_o let_v we_o call_v to_o mind_n how_o it_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o that_o job_n blaspheme_v not_o god_n to_o make_v himself_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o providence_n that_o all_o thing_n a_o rule_v by_o fortune_n and_o that_o god_n in_o the_o mean_a while_o set_v asleep_a in_o heaven_n no_o but_o his_o intent_n be_v to_o

very_a profitable_a doctrine_n as_o i_o have_v show_v heretofore_o but_o yet_o have_v it_o need_v to_o be_v repeat_v new_a again_o it_o be_v that_o the_o good_a be_v great_o tread_v under_o foot_n for_o after_o long_o pine_v they_o die_v before_o their_o time_n and_o yet_o in_o their_o own_o opinion_n they_o have_v live_v too_o long_o and_o why_o for_o their_o life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o continull_v consumption_n we_o see_v this_o with_o our_o eye_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n what_o become_v of_o the_o wicked_a that_o have_v despise_v god_n and_o be_v full_a of_o outrage_n cruelty_n and_o naughtiness_n assoon_o as_o their_o good_a day_n be_v past_a they_o die_v yea_o even_o as_o water_n that_o soak_v away_o for_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o perceive_v that_o god_n utter_v any_o certain_a mark_n of_o his_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o but_o their_o death_n be_v gentle_a and_o easy_a when_o a_o man_n see_v this_o what_o can_v he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o great_a stumble_a block_n for_o such_o as_o judge_v after_o their_o natural_a reason_n to_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n do_v not_o always_o punish_v the_o wicked_a but_o let_v they_o go_v in_o their_o common_a train_n and_o afterward_o when_o they_o die_v there_o be_v no_o more_o see_v in_o they_o than_o be_v common_a and_o general_a in_o all_o man_n yet_o must_v we_o not_o therefore_o surmise_v that_o they_o be_v escape_v or_o that_o they_o shall_v abide_v unpunished_a but_o we_o must_v have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o judgement_n which_o we_o look_v for_o according_a to_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o our_o lord_n call_v we_o thither_o when_o he_o execute_v not_o his_o justice_n to_o the_o full_a but_o only_o in_o part_n to_o give_v we_o some_o inkling_n of_o

furthermore_o when_o we_o see_v the_o wicked_a nowadays_o hide_v themselves_o in_o do_v evil_a let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o can_v not_o hide_v ourselves_o

very_o strange_a if_o job_n intent_n be_v not_o know_v but_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n have_v bereave_v he_o of_o his_o right_n he_o mean_v not_o that_o god_n use_v a_o tyrannical_a manner_n of_o deal_n with_o he_o neither_o mean_v he_o that_o himself_o be_v so_o righteous_a that_o god_n have_v not_o cause_v too_o punish_v he_o yet_o more_o rigorous_o but_o rather_o he_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o ordinanarie_n righteousness_n that_o be_v write_v of_o in_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o purpose_n of_o such_o as_o have_v condemn_v he_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v job_n friend_n go_v no_o further_a than_o thus_o namely_o god_n punish_v such_o as_o have_v do_v amiss_o and_o be_v the_o father_n and_o saviour_n of_o good_a man_n therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o job_n be_v a_o wicked_a man_n and_o a_o despiser_n of_o god_n and_o that_o all_o his_o life_n be_v out_o of_o order_n and_o why_o for_o man_n see_v he_o be_v punish_v with_o extremity_n if_o you_o mark_v all_o the_o adversity_n that_o happen_v common_o in_o this_o world_n they_o be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o this_o be_v and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v conclude_v that_o god_n have_v find_v this_o man_n to_o be_v a_o outrageous_a sinner_n above_o all_o the_o rest_n loe_o what_o conclusion_n job_n friend_n make_v but_o they_o deal_v yet_o worse_a for_o they_o rest_v upon_o the_o

for_o the_o server_n of_o god_n after_o death_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o too_o be_v think_v that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v punish_v any_o where_o else_o than_o here_o this_o be_v a_o overth_z wart_n expound_v of_o god_n law_n for_o although_o our_o lord_n threaten_v that_o he_o will_v punish_v offender_n he_o mean_v not_o to_o restrain_v himself_o to_o any_o certain_a time_n true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o be_v ordinary_o see_v in_o this_o present_a life_n howbeit_o not_o continual_o we_o must_v not_o make_v a_o general_a rule_n of_o it_o without_o exception_n for_o that_o be_v a_o

ourselves_o as_o upon_o our_o neighbour_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v construe_v god_n love_n towards_o we_o according_a to_o his_o present_a handle_n of_o we_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v we_o despair_v at_o every_o blow_n true_a it_o be_v that_o if_o he_o punish_v we_o we_o be_v always_o well_o worthy_a of_o it_o but_o howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v if_o we_o shall_v imagine_v that_o god_n

so_o you_o see_v we_o shall_v be_v utter_o undo_v wherefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v so_o wise_a as_o to_o know_v that_o god_n afflict_v of_o man_n be_v not_o always_o for_o their_o sin_n but_o because_o he_o be_v mind_v to_o exercise_v their_o patience_n to_o tame_v their_o fleshly_a lust_n to_o bring_v they_o whole_o under_o his_o awe_n &_o to_o teach_v they_o that_o in_o this_o present_a

will_v be_v enough_o to_o cast_v as_o many_o of_o we_o in_o despair_n as_o do_v suffer_v adversity_n like_v as_o it_o be_v not_o long_o of_o job_n friend_n that_o they_o utter_o overwhelm_v he_o not_o by_o stand_v upon_o this_o point_n that_o god_n punish_v he_o for_o some_o great_a sin_n for_o job_n at_o the_o hear_n of_o such_o word_n may_v have_v be_v catch_v with_o such_o a_o fear_n as_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v know_v what_o to_o do_v else_o than_o to_o have_v take_v himself_o for_o a_o damn_a &_o curse_a man_n and_o so_o you_o see_v how_o we_o also_o shall_v do_v be_v there_o no_o more_o but_o this_o pride_n in_o condemn_v of_o innocent_n what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o so_o then_o let_v we_o remember_v well_o how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n that_o bliss_v be_v that_o

be_v overhasty_a in_o the_o mean_a while_n for_o whosoever_o hold_v not_o himself_o still_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o may_v pervert_v god_n judgement_n at_o every_o turn_n by_o misjudge_a they_o and_o consequent_o he_o shall_v usurp_v the_o authority_n that_o belong_v to_o god_n alone_o and_o so_o let_v we_o come_v again_o to_o that_o which_o job_n say_v now_o which_o be_v god_n have_v

that_o for_o one_o point_n and_o again_o he_o mean_v not_o that_o he_o have_v so_o good_a right_n on_o his_o side_n as_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o get_v the_o upper_a hand_n and_o to_o

behove_v we_o to_o know_v that_o he_o have_v a_o high_a kind_n of_o justice_n or_o righteousness_n than_o our_o wit_n can_v reach_v unto_o and_o we_o can_v never_o attain_v unto_o it_o but_o the_o

so_o than_o if_o we_o look_v wise_o upon_o god_n judgement_n we_o may_v well_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n will_v punish_v the_o wicked_a in_o their_o offspring_n look_v upon_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v have_v endure_v great_a unquietness_n and_o pain_n all_o his_o life_n long_o too_o gather_v good_n in_o deed_n he_o

give_v we_o some_o truce_n while_o we_o be_v here_o why_o utter_v thou_o so_o great_a rigour_n against_o we_o thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o job_n mean_v too_o say_v and_o i_o have_v tell_v

the_o victory_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v be_v for_o we_o see_v then_o that_o he_o have_v power_n over_o death_n let_v his_o resurrection_n always_o come_v before_o our_o eye_n and_o let_v we_o

although_o we_o have_v many_o adversity_n to_o suffer_v in_o this_o mortal_a life_n and_o that_o it_o please_v god_n to_o exercise_v we_o we_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a nor_o enter_v into_o

so_o that_o he_o weep_v with_o they_o that_o do_v weep_v and_o keep_v company_n with_o such_o as_o be_v torment_v with_o adversity_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o job_n allege_v to_o show_v that_o there_o

and_o that_o our_o flesh_n grow_v overlusty_a or_o else_o we_o be_v cruel_a towards_o our_o neighbour_n lo_o here_o the_o two_o cause_n why_o god_n do_v ordinary_o afflict_v we_o and_o we_o see_v

long_o as_o he_o be_v at_o his_o ease_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o cause_n why_o god_n afflict_v man_n be_v for_o that_o he_o see_v it_o be_v for_o their_o behoof_n to_o be_v so_o correct_v furthermore_o there_o be_v yet_o one_o other_o inconvenience_n for_o they_o that_o have_v the_o world_n at_o will_n pass_v not_o for_o poor_a man_n that_o be_v in_o adversity_n but_o despise_v they_o

from_o the_o feel_n of_o all_o their_o grief_n and_o adversity_n god_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o handle_v they_o rough_o when_o their_o turn_n come_v about_o and_o forsomuch_o as_o they_o have_v have_v no_o pity_n nor_o compassion_n of_o the_o misery_n that_o they_o have_v see_v in_o their_o brethren_n god_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o make_v they_o feel_v by_o force_n anon_o after_o that_o they_o be_v

they_o be_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v be_v that_o god_n ordinary_a afflict_v of_o man_n be_v either_o because_o they_o have_v be_v cruel_a in_o the_o

mark_v first_o of_o all_o that_o it_o have_v always_o be_v god_n will_v that_o the_o love_a of_o their_o enemy_n shall_v be_v the_o mark_n of_o his_o child_n and_o for_o proof_n hereof_o let_v we_o

blasphemy_n of_o the_o papist_n that_o god_n will_v have_v at_o all_o time_n be_v that_o the_o faithful_a shall_v love_v those_o that_o hate_v they_o and_o endeavour_n to_o do_v those_o good_a which_o

commandment_n against_o the_o which_o we_o can_v strive_v without_o offend_a god_n deadly_a now_o see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o god_n will_v bind_v the_o faithful_a to_o love_v their_o enemy_n even_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n much_o more_o reason_n be_v it_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o say_a rule_n now_o for_o we_o have_v a_o more_o large_a declaration_n of_o it_o by_o the_o holy_a mouth_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n be_v dark_a of_o itself_o yea_o and_o it_o be_v wrest_v awry_o by_o the_o scribe_n and_o the_o pharisee_n but_o now_o have_v jesus_n christ_n bring_v it_o again_o to_o his_o pureness_n &_o tell_v we_o that_o if_o we_o love_v not_o those_o which_o hate_v we_o and_o endeavour_n not_o to_o help_v those_o that_o will_v

good_a will_n to_o our_o enemy_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o frame_v ourselves_o to_o that_o doctrine_n and_o therein_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o shameless_a boldness_n of_o the_o papist_n have_v be_v to_o villeynous_a yea_o and_o to_o devilish_a in_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n word_n be_v but_o a_o simple_a admonition_n see_v it_o be_v match_v with_o such_o a_o sentence_n of_o damnation_n that_o god_n will_v renounce_v we_o and_o banish_v we_o out_o of_o his_o kingdom_n if_o we_o overmaster_v not_o our_o heart_n so_o far_o as_o too_o love_v those_o that_o hate_v we_o moreover_o we_o have_v also_o a_o mirror_n hereof_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o he_o offer_v himself_o for_o such_o as_o be_v his_o deadly_a enemy_n wherefore_o endure_v he_o so_o bitter_a death_n but_o too_o reconcile_v we_o now_o if_o there_o behoove_v a_o reconciliation_n too_o be_v make_v then_o be_v there_o a_o hatred_n and_o god_n and_o we_o be_v at_o odds_n behold_v then_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n yield_v himself_o to_o death_n yea_o and_o too_o all_o curse_n to_o recover_v we_o unto_o god_n his_o father_n at_o such_o time_n as_o we_o be_v his_o enemy_n and_o ought_v not_o such_o a_o

when_o he_o go_v about_o to_o subdue_v all_o the_o hatred_n which_o we_o have_v conceive_v against_o our_o enemy_n thus_o than_o the_o order_n which_o we_o have_v to_o note_v be_v that_o those_o which_o live_v under_o the_o law_n offend_v god_n when_o they_o intend_v to_o revenge_v themselves_o and_o therefore_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o which_o have_v such_o a_o declaration_n as_o

we_o be_v glad_a of_o it_o can_v this_o be_v do_v without_o the_o overthrow_n of_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v other_o also_o to_o

force_n and_o violence_n must_v be_v use_v to_o oppress_v they_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o i_o say_v that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o strain_n and_o enforce_v ourselves_o for_o we_o shall_v have_v much_o a_o do_v to_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v nevertheless_o if_o we_o go_v too_o it_o after_o this_o sort_n god_n will_v turn_v the_o bitterness_n of_o our_o nature_n into_o love_a kindness_n and_o sweetness_n and_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o hate_v our_o enemy_n and_o for_o this_o consideration_n as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o hate_v our_o enemy_n we_o must_v call_v to_o mind_v the_o request_n that_o we_o make_v when_o we_o desire_v god_n too_o forgive_v we_o our_o fault_n as_o we_o forgive_v they_o that_o offend_v we_o for_o there_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o be_v cite_v before_o god_n according_a as_o in_o very_a deed_n we_o come_v to_o present_v ourselves_o before_o god_n judgement_n seat_n how_o when_o i_o protest_v unto_o my_o god_n that_o i_o forgive_v my_o enemy_n and_o that_o i_o desire_v none_o other_o pardon_n than_o i_o grant_v they_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o dissimulation_n in_o i_o what_o shall_v not_o my_o prayer_n be_v turn_v into_o curse_v if_o we_o think_v well_o upon_o this_o sure_o we_o may_v break_v the_o wicked_a stomach_n that_o be_v in_o we_o and_o at_o length_n god_n shall_v have_v the_o victory_n so_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v easy_a for_o we_o even_o to_o love_v they_o that_o hate_v we_o but_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o know_v the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o we_o let_v we_o go_v to_o it_o by_o degree_n as_o the_o scripture_n lead_v we_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a but_o we_o shall_v be_v stir_v up_o when_o a_o man_n do_v we_o any_o wrong_n well_o there_o be_v one_o sin_n already_o if_o we_o do_v but_o grudge_v against_o he_o in_o our_o heart_n according_a as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v we_o have_v already_o gain_v the_o everlasting_a fire_n and_o his_o express_v hereof_o be_v by_o a_o similitude_n which_o he_o borrow_v of_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o judgement_n that_o be_v in_o his_o time_n therefore_o to_o make_v comparison_n of_o the_o three_o degree_n of_o offend_v in_o this_o behalf_n he_o say_v that_o the_o first_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v punish_v by_o judgement_n but_o when_o we_o open_v our_o mouth_n to_o utter_v any_o word_n of_o spite_n or_o disdain_v against_o he_o that_o have_v offend_v we_o then_o be_v there_o a_o condemnation_n yet_o grievouser_n and_o more_o to_o be_v fear_v as_o if_o we_o be_v condemn_v by_o a_o counsel_n or_o consistory_n somewhat_o more_o solemn_o assemble_v according_a as_o jesus_n christ_n allege_v that_o similitude_n the_o three_o degree_n be_v when_o we_o come_v to_o open_v rage_v in_o word_n through_o choler_n and_o this_o offence_n deserve_v to_o be_v punish_v as_o it_o be_v by_o the_o chief_a court_n of_o justice_n but_o jesus_n christ_n leving_fw-mi the_o similitude_n say_v plain_o that_o such_o a_o one_o be_v worthy_a of_o hell_n fire_n he_o mean_v that_o all_o three_o be_v worthy_a of_o it_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o show_v the_o degree_n of_o the_o evil_n then_o if_o a_o man_n have_v any_o sudden_a choler_n although_o the_o same_o settle_v not_o in_o his_o heart_n yet_o you_o see_v he_o have_v already_o deserve_v everlasting_a death_n before_o god_n how_o shall_v we_o do_v then_o if_o we_o foster_v deadly_a hatred_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o be_v full_a of_o venomous_a rancour_n to_o be_v revenge_v of_o they_o that_o have_v do_v we_o any_o wrong_n wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o correct_v this_o vice_n in_o we_o and_o understand_v that_o if_o any_o evil_a word_n have_v escape_v our_o mouth_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v sorry_a for_o it_o and_o to_o fall_v to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v namely_o that_o the_o sun_n go_v not_o down_o upon_o your_o wrath_n jest_n you_o give_v possession_n unto_o satan_n hereby_o we_o be_v warn_v that_o if_o we_o have_v be_v move_v to_o any_o displeasure_n the_o same_o must_v pass_v away_o and_o the_o sun_n must_v not_o go_v down_o upon_o it_o so_o as_o our_o anger_n shall_v multiply_v in_o itself_o and_o why_o the_o punishment_n that_o saint_n paul_n add_v aught_o to_o touch_v we_o near_o for_o say_v he_o it_o be_v to_o give_v satan_n possession_n of_o we_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v demand_v of_o any_o of_o we_o whether_o we_o will_v that_o the_o devil_n shall_v have_v the_o mastery_n of_o we_o and_o reign_v over_o we_o and_o be_v our_o prince_n we_o will_v utter_o abhor_v it_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o do_v it_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o bear_v any_o evil_a will_n against_o our_o enemy_n we_o can_v make_v god_n a_o liar_n nor_o his_o holy_a spirit_n which_o speak_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o s._n paul_n but_o when_o we_o know_v this_o let_v we_o pass_v further_o and_o think_v thus_o with_o ourselves_o yonder_o same_o be_v a_o creature_n of_o god_n and_o i_o see_v he_o be_v a_o wretched_a damn_a soul_n what_o ought_v we_o to_o do_v then_o but_o only_o pray_v god_n for_o such_o as_o be_v in_o the_o way_n too_o destruction_n and_o again_o have_v not_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n redeem_v man_n soul_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o death_n come_v not_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n nevertheless_o for_o asmuch_o as_o it_o be_v not_o in_o we_o too_o discern_v between_o the_o righteous_a and_o the_o sinner_n that_n go_v to_o destruction_n but_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v to_o our_o knowledge_n suffer_v his_o death_n and_o passion_n as_o well_o for_o they_o as_o for_o we_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o labour_v to_o bring_v every_o man_n too_o salvation_n that_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n may_v be_v available_a to_o they_o and_o furthermore_o if_o this_o be_v to_o heavy_a for_o we_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o comparison_n there_o be_v between_o god_n and_o we_o for_o who_o be_v he_o that_o offend_v not_o god_n daily_a and_o yet_o nevertheless_o assoon_o as_o we_o return_v unto_o he_o he_o give_v we_o liberty_n too_o come_v familiar_o thither_o without_o doubt_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v receive_v and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n if_o any_o man_n offend_v we_o there_o be_v no_o mean_n to_o be_v find_v to_o make_v we_o friend_n again_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v of_o this_o sentence_n where_o we_o hear_v job_n protest_v that_o he_o not_o only_o forbear_v all_o revenge_n but_o also_o be_v sorry_a when_o any_o evil_n happen_v to_o his_o enemy_n and_o his_o heart_n rejoice_v not_o when_o he_o hear_v speak_v of_o it_o nevertheless_o the_o holy_a scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o righteous_a shall_v rejoice_v at_o the_o confuzion_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o that_o be_v true_a howbeit_o to_o the_o intent_n to_o have_v such_o a_o gladness_n as_o god_n allow_v it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v scour_v &_o cleanse_v from_o all_o privy_a malice_n &_o all_o regard_n of_o our_o own_o person_n when_o god_n child_n rejoice_v at_o the_o adversity_n of_o the_o wicked_a it_o must_v be_v to_o the_o end_n to_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n be_v just_a and_o righteous_a and_o yet_o therewithal_o they_o must_v also_o take_v warning_n to_o walk_v in_o fear_n
sleep_n trouble_v they_o and_o also_o that_o he_o speak_v by_o chastisement_n it_o seem_v unto_o they_o that_o here_o be_v the_o two_o manner_n of_o speak_v unto_o we_o which_o god_n use_v so_o as_o sometime_o he_o reveal_v himself_o by_o inspiration_n and_o sometime_o also_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o hand_n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n &_o it_o be_v a_o constrain_a sense_n furthermore_o we_o need_v not_o to_o beat_v our_o brain_n much_o in_o seek_v diversity_n of_o exposition_n see_v that_o the_o natural_a sense_n be_v manifest_a unto_o we_o therefore_o let_v we_o follow_v that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o which_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v speak_v once_o or_o twice_o yea_o and_o yet_o not_o be_v understand_v thus_o we_o know_v what_o eliu_n mean_v to_o say_v and_o now_o remain_v to_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o our_o instruction_n and_o how_o first_o of_o all_o by_o know_v our_o own_o slenderness_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o man_n take_v so_o high_o upon_o they_o to_o seek_v and_o search_v after_o such_o a_o sort_n as_o nothing_o may_v escape_v they_o but_o because_o they_o think_v themselves_o able_a enough_o too_o find_v out_o all_o thing_n but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v thorough_o well_o tame_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o challenge_v nothing_o to_o himself_o he_o will_v be_v no_o more_o so_o proud_a and_o lofty_a to_o search_v god_n secret_n to_o far_o out_o of_o measure_n so_o then_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v take_v profit_n of_o this_o text_n special_o first_o let_v we_o humble_v ourselves_o yea_o even_n by_o acknowledge_v that_o our_o understanding_n be_v to_o small_a and_o gross_a mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n let_v we_o consider_v also_o that_o god_n secret_a judgement_n be_v a_o dreadful_a dungeon_n that_o his_o way_n be_v incomprehensible_a and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n to_o wade_v to_o far_o in_o they_o but_o must_v content_v themselves_o with_o that_o which_o he_o declare_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o second_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v be_v that_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v ravish_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o it_o &_o conclude_v that_o we_o must_v not_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o be_v able_a to_o know_v &_o comprehend_v all_o that_o be_v in_o he_o for_o whither_o be_v that_o to_o go_v we_o creep_v here_o upon_o the_o earth_n &_o we_o know_v that_o he_o far_o surmount_v the_o heaven_n then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o honour_v his_o secret_a judgement_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o will_v always_o have_v authority_n to_o speak_v &_o utter_v what_o he_o list_v maugre_o all_o they_o that_o speak_v against_o he_o yea_o &_o that_o when_o he_o speak_v once_o or_o twice_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o show_v his_o pleasure_n and_o will_n man_n shall_v know_v nothing_o of_o it_o because_o they_o be_v to_o rude_a to_o conceive_v the_o thing_n in_o one_o word_n which_o god_n have_v determine_v in_o his_o purpose_n but_o shall_v daily_o see_v one_o thing_n &_o yet_o not_o withstand_v be_v new_a to_o seek_v of_o it_o yea_o &_o still_o dazzle_v at_o it_o even_o at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o year_n or_o ten_o &_o although_o they_o have_v see_v one_o thing_n often_o yet_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v hide_v from_o they_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o pride_n that_o be_v in_o we_o it_o be_v sufficient_o confirm_v unto_o we_o by_o experience_n that_o we_o never_o come_v to_o any_o reason_n but_o by_o compulsion_n &_o that_o we_o will_v always_o needs_o be_v selfwise_o even_o though_o our_o ignorance_n show_v itself_o enough_o &_o to_o much_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o we_o be_v warn_v in_o this_o text_n that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o determination_n as_o it_o be_v bury_v &_o hide_v we_o see_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o daily_o &_o we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v save_v that_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n &_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o bridle_v ourselves_o in_o wait_v till_o our_o lord_n revele_v it_o in_o great_a perfection_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v till_o we_o be_v bereave_v of_o this_o mortal_a flesh_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o and_o according_a to_o the_o article_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o let_v we_o note_v also_o that_o here_o be_v no_o speak_v but_o of_o the_o judgement_n which_o god_n will_v have_v hide_v because_o it_o be_v not_o for_o our_o behoof_n to_o have_v full_a knowledge_n of_o they_o as_o yet_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the._n 62._o psalm_n that_o god_n speak_v once_o &_o david_n protest_v that_o he_o will_v bear_v it_o twice_o namely_o that_o there_o be_v might_n &_o mercy_n in_o god_n there_o be_v no_o treat_v of_o god_n wonderful_a judgement_n as_o there_o be_v here_o of_o what_o then_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o learn_v by_o his_o word_n which_o be_v bring_v to_o our_o remembrance_n &_o set_v before_o we_o continual_o for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n god_n make_v we_o to_o feel_v his_o mighty_a power_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v fear_v he_o &_o walk_n according_a to_o his_o will_n on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o give_v we_o his_o mercy_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v take_v comfort_n &_o joy_n at_o it_o what_o learn_v we_o daily_o by_o god_n word_n but_o that_o he_o be_v the_o master_n to_o who_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v subject_a &_o that_o we_o must_v not_o live_v after_o our_o own_o lust_n but_o that_o god_n must_v reign_v over_o we_o &_o his_o law_n be_v a_o bridle_n that_o we_o may_v be_v teach_v under_o it_o thus_o the_o first_o point_n be_v to_o serve_v god_n &_o to_o know_v what_o he_o require_v &_o allow_v the_o second_o be_v that_o we_o know_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n &_o saviour_n to_o the_o end_n to_o put_v our_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o and_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v he_o by_o ground_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o mere_a mercy_n know_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o death_n and_o damnation_n in_o we_o and_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o have_v draw_v we_o out_o of_o death_n through_o his_o own_o mere_a goodness_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n thus_o as_o concern_v this_o second_o point_n the_o two_o thing_n wherein_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v confirm_v be_v that_o we_o must_v resort_v to_o he_o for_o resuge_a and_o also_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o his_o mercy_n be_v set_v before_o we_o daily_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v receive_v we_o so_o then_o this_o text_n of_o david_n speak_v not_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v keep_v hide_v from_o our_o knowledge_n but_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o declare_v unto_o we_o and_o teach_v we_o therefore_o he_o say_v god_n have_v speak_v that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n have_v so_o manifest_v his_o will_n in_o his_o speak_n as_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v any_o more_o nor_o to_o reply_v against_o that_o which_o he_o say_v i_o have_v hear_v it_o twice_o say_v he_o herein_o he_o betoken_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v hear_v god_n at_o a_o glance_n but_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o mind_v the_o thing_n without_o cease_v which_o he_o speak_v and_o although_o he_o speak_v but_o once_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o let_v his_o doctrine_n slip_v but_o settle_v it_o thorough_o in_o our_o remembrance_n and_o learn_v to_o print_v it_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o think_v upon_o it_o early_o and_o late_o because_o our_o memory_n be_v short_a so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o faithful_a to_o apply_v themselves_o thorough_o to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n show_v they_o by_o his_o word_n and_o to_o set_v their_o whole_a mind_n upon_o it_o assure_v themselves_o that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o tell_v and_o promise_v they_o for_o their_o welfare_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n howbeit_o heerewithall_o let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o seek_v any_o further_a and_o let_v we_o not_o covet_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v and_o how_o may_v that_o be_v by_o learning_n in_o his_o school_n and_o if_o he_o reserve_v any_o secret_a judgement_n to_o himself_o let_v we_o be_v ignorant_a in_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v know_v unto_o we_o until_o he_o have_v take_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n as_o for_o example_n it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n govern_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o providence_n and_o eliu_n speak_v too_o the_o same_o purpose_n here_o you_o see_v then_o that_o god_n
i_o not_o serve_v god_n as_o i_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o though_o i_o have_v commit_v some_o fault_n be_v there_o not_o some_o mean_n to_o recompense_v it_o withal_o yes_o and_o i_o have_v do_v this_o and_o that_o behold_v i_o say_v how_o man_n will_v ever_o put_v some_o bar_n in_o god_n way_n to_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v have_v no_o vantage_n of_o they_o thus_o seek_v they_o their_o righteousness_n in_o their_o own_o merit_n but_o when_o god_n intend_v to_o give_v we_o a_o righteousness_n whereby_o we_o may_v stand_v before_o he_o he_o use_v a_o contrary_a kind_n of_o speech_n which_o be_v that_o he_o admit_v we_o and_o accept_v we_o for_o righteous_a by_o cover_v our_o sin_n where_o on_o then_o shall_v our_o righteousness_n rest_n on_o the_o free_a mercy_n of_o our_o god_n because_o that_o when_o he_o have_v once_o scour_v away_o our_o spot_n with_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n and_o discharge_v we_o from_o death_n and_o damnation_n by_o the_o ransom_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n pay_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o wipe_v out_o our_o sin_n and_o lay_v not_o our_o offence_n to_o our_o charge_n thus_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v preach_v unto_o we_o by_o god_n messenger_n be_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v or_o accept_v for_o righteous_a and_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n use_v continual_o the_o word_n justify_v it_o may_v well_o say_v that_o we_o find_v favour_n or_o grace_n when_o god_n pardon_v we_o according_a also_o as_o it_o be_v often_o say_v so_o but_o the_o holieghoste_n think_v it_o not_o enough_o to_o use_v such_o word_n and_o why_o for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v sinner_n god_n must_v needs_o hate_v we_o we_o know_v that_o he_o be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o righteousness_n and_o there_o be_v no_o agreeument_n between_o he_o and_o unrighteousness_n therefore_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v sinner_n we_o be_v loath_o in_o god_n sight_n and_o he_o must_v needs_o reject_v we_o and_o to_o be_v short_a we_o have_v no_o entrance_n unto_o god_n till_o we_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a now_o then_o how_o become_v we_o righteous_a it_o be_v because_o god_n regard_v not_o our_o sin_n but_o

that_o we_o be_v take_v for_o righteous_a and_o god_n find_v no_o more_o fault_n with_o we_o when_o he_o accept_v we_o after_o that_o sort_n for_o his_o son_n sake_n this_o be_v the_o ryghtuhusnesse_n

have_v allege_v out_o of_o saint_n matthew_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v what_o the_o power_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v when_o we_o receive_v the_o promise_n of_o it_o by_o faith_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o god_n shall_v reach_v we_o his_o hand_n from_o heaven_n too_o pull_v we_o out_o of_o the_o dungeon_n of_o death_n and_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v for_o the_o

for_o they_o tie_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n to_o shrift_n and_o where_o do_v god_n ever_o tell_v man_n that_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o shrive_v they_o of_o all_o their_o secret_n in_o the_o ear_n of_o a_o mortal_a man_n too_o obtain_v mercy_n god_n declare_v that_o if_o the_o sinner_n sigh_v for_o his_o sin_n he_o will_v be_v merciful_a to_o he_o but_o behold_v a_o mortal_a creature_n presume_v to_o make_v a_o law_n and_o to_o shut_v man_n out_o of_o paradyse_n if_o they_o observe_v it_o not_o be_v not_o that_o a_o notorious_a usurp_n of_o god_n power_n beside_o this_o the_o pope_n have_v his_o bulle●_n indulgence_n pardon_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n too_o ground_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n upon_o and_o therewithal_o he_o mingle_v the_o blood_n of_o martyr_n as_o he_o that_o mean_v express_o too_o deface_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o have_v no_o

satan_n gewgaw_n but_o contrariwise_o it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n without_o god_n message_n that_o be_v too_o say_v without_o preach_v and_o doctrine_n when_o the_o pope_n forgive_v sin_n he_o be_v dumb_a he_o bring_v not_o one_o jot_n of_o god_n word_n neither_o have_v he_o any_o thing_n but_o charm_n and_o sorcery_n as_o be_v say_v afore_o moreover_o he_o lay_v tyrannous_a law_n upon_o man_n neck_n to_o overthrow_v the_o mean_a which_o our_o lord_n have_v ordain_v again_o he_o abridge_v god_n himself_o of_o his_o liberty_n and_o there_o be_v no_o let_v in_o he_o to_o disappoint_v god_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o receive_v sinner_n to_o mercy_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v the_o devil_n synagogue_n destitute_a of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o consequent_o damn_v so_o long_o as_o it_o hold_v itself_o too_o the_o tradition_n of_o antechrist_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n we_o say_v that_o man_n sin_n be_v forgive_v they_o by_o receive_v the_o message_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o the_o same_o have_v not_o to_o do_v with_o the_o ceremony_n that_o man_n have_v devise_v nor_o with_o the_o law_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v at_o their_o own_o pleasure_n but_o only_o that_o we_o must_v follow_v the_o order_n and_o rule_v which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v establish_v who_o have_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o hand_n he_o have_v give_v we_o a_o mean_a whereby_o he_o will_v have_v it_o do_v which_o be_v the_o preach_n of_o his_o gospel_n and_o the_o receive_n of_o it_o with_o assure_a faith_n therefore_o if_o we_o stick_v to_o that_o simplicity_n we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o the_o commission_n come_v from_o above_o and_o that_o man_n take_v not_o ne_o usurp_v not_o any_o thing_n upon_o they_o of_o their_o own_o brain_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o the_o word_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v pity_v he_o and_o deliver_v he_o then_o must_v every_o whit_n of_o it_o come_v from_o above_o and_o none_o but_o god_n only_o must_v

the_o only_a grace_n of_o god_n ought_v too_o suffice_v we_o though_o we_o have_v never_o so_o many_o sorrow_n mingle_v with_o it_o according_a as_o god_n will_v excercise_n we_o for_o he_o will_v

when_o his_o gospel_n be_v publish_v let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o must_v rest_v whole_o thereupon_o and_o though_o we_o have_v never_o so_o many_o sorrow_n and_o encumbrance_n yea_o and_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o pass_v further_o and_o to_o surmount_v they_o all_o and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o our_o misery_n and_o tribulation_n see_v that_o god_n love_n be_v print_v in_o our_o

for_o without_o that_o we_o be_v in_o curse_a case_n and_o undoubted_o although_o we_o have_v all_o the_o good_n of_o the_o world_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v sure_a to_o enjoy_v they_o one_o minute_n

all_o one_o as_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o so_o long_o as_o man_n be_v accuse_v in_o their_o own_o conscience_n they_o can_v think_v upon_o god_n but_o with_o all_o terror_n so_o as_o they_o can_v

and_o out_o of_o doubt_n we_o see_v that_o so_o long_o be_v sinner_n be_v asleep_a in_o their_o evil_n they_o desire_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o to_o forget_v god_n and_o if_o any_o mention_n be_v

mean_v by_o say_v that_o we_o find_v peace_n to_o godward_o when_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n also_o by_o that_o say_n he_o mean_v that_o the_o wicked_a have_v no_o rest_n but_o when_o they_o be_v fall_v asleep_a or_o rather_o dull_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o they_o think_v not_o upon_o god_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o heathnishe_a sort_n and_o such_o as_o seek_v too_o feed_v themselves_o in_o their_o vice_n do_v labour_n too_o forget_v god_n and_o settle_v themselves_o thereupon_o but_o when_o god_n bring_v they_o to_o their_o remembrance_n than_o they_o wake_v yea_o

&_o to_o drown_v they_o in_o the_o deep_a of_o hell_n because_o they_o can_v not_o make_v their_o profit_n of_o it_o nevertheless_o the_o holy_a ghost_n provoke_v we_o to_o receive_v the_o

we_o from_o humble_v of_o ourselves_o before_o god_n and_o from_o confess_v of_o our_o fault_n before_o man_n hypocrisy_n make_v we_o to_o labour_v continual_o to_o cloak_v our_o sin_n &_o to_o

we_o to_o desire_v always_o to_o be_v in_o good_a reputation_n alas_o we_o seek_v to_o be_v esteem_v among_o man_n or_o at_o leastwise_o to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o reproach_n and_o although_o we_o know_v our_o own_o sin_n yet_o be_v we_o loath_a to_o be_v tell_v of_o they_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n behold_v our_o condemnation_n increase_v and_o double_v before_o god_n and_o his_o angel_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o tame_a this_o pride_n until_o it_o be_v full_o subdue_v so_o as_o we_o may_v come_v to_o our_o god_n with_o all_o humility_n and_o not_o only_o confess_v our_o wretchedness_n before_o he_o but_o also_o endeavour_n too_o edify_v our_o neighbour_n if_o a_o man_n demand_v for_o what_o cause_n we_o shall_v speak_v so_o before_o man_n there_o be_v two_o reason_n the_o one_o be_v that_o god_n may_v be_v know_v too_o be_v only_o righteous_a as_o i_o have_v say_v and_o that_o his_o grace_n may_v appear_v and_o shine_v forth_o although_o god_n can_v forbear_v our_o confession_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v have_v it_o open_o and_o manifest_o know_v that_o we_o be_v in_o his_o debt_n and_o we_o see_v it_o be_v impossible_a to_o know_v his_o goodness_n towards_o we_o if_o we_o be_v not_o utter_o cast_v down_o and_o even_o at_o the_o point_n of_o despair_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o first_o reason_n why_o we_o ought_v too_o confess_v before_o our_o neighbour_n the_o goodness_n that_o we_o have_v feel_v at_o god_n hand_n in_o that_o he_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o death_n and_o from_o the_o destruction_n wherein_o we_o be_v plunge_v also_o there_o be_v a_o second_o reason_n which_o be_v that_o other_o man_n shall_v be_v edify_v by_o our_o example_n i_o have_v be_v exercise_v in_o affliction_n and_o god_n have_v be_v so_o gracious_a to_o deliver_v i_o out_o of_o it_o it_o be_v good_a that_o other_o shall_v know_v of_o it_o that_o when_o god_n shall_v afflict_v they_o they_o may_v think_v with_o themselves_o behold_v god_n hand_n be_v upon_o i_o and_o he_o summon_v i_o and_o why_o for_o i_o be_v as_o it_o be_v drunken_a in_o my_o sin_n i_o be_v as_o a_o stray_n beast_n and_o now_o i_o see_v that_o he_o intend_v to_o draw_v i_o home_o and_o to_o set_v i_o into_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n again_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a that_o man_n shall_v be_v warn_v of_o god_n work_v which_o we_o have_v feel_v in_o ourselves_o according_a as_o we_o see_v in_o very_a deed_n that_o the_o confession_n which_o the_o faithful_a have_v make_v in_o time_n past_a do_v serve_v at_o this_o day_n for_o our_o learning_n if_o we_o have_v not_o the_o example_n of_o david_n in_o the_o great_a number_n of_o affliction_n which_o he_o feel_v and_o overcome_v as_o soon_o as_o we_o feel_v any_o small_a adversity_n we_o shall_v forthwith_o be_v at_o the_o point_n of_o despair_n but_o when_o we_o see_v that_o the_o issue_v be_v good_a and_o profitable_a unto_o david_n and_o that_o he_o confess_v it_o too_o have_v be_v a_o necessary_a thing_n for_o he_o too_o be_v so_o afflict_v and_o chastise_v at_o god_n hand_n we_o also_o do_v trust_n in_o god_n and_o flee_v unto_o he_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o be_v his_o office_n too_o raise_v man_n out_o of_o the_o grave_n when_o he_o have_v cast_v they_o into_o it_o so_o then_o when_o we_o confess_v our_o sin_n and_o report_v how_o god_n have_v visit_v we_o with_o rigour_n for_o a_o time_n and_o afterward_o quicken_v we_o again_o it_o serve_v to_o instruct_v our_o neighbour_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v novice_n nor_o think_v it_o strange_a when_o god_n shall_v visit_v they_o in_o their_o turn_n and_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v they_o may_v know_v themselves_o to_o be_v wretched_a sinner_n and_o seek_v the_o remedy_n of_o it_o by_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v more_o and_o more_o stir_v up_o too_o serve_v and_o honour_v he_o when_o they_o shall_v have_v feel_v his_o goodness_n and_o grace_n by_o experience_n in_o that_o he_o have_v receive_v they_o so_o to_o mercy_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v show_v here_o be_v not_o unprofitable_a for_o a_o hundred_o be_v edify_v and_o instruct_v by_o the_o example_n of_o one_o man_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o put_v away_o retchlessness_n when_o our_o lord_n shall_v have_v show_v we_o any_o favour_n so_o as_o we_o may_v magnify_v his_o goodness_n before_o man_n and_o the_o same_o may_v be_v preach_v with_o one_o common_a accord_n and_o afterward_o it_o be_v say_v for_o a_o conclusion_n he_o have_v deliver_v my_o soul_n from_o the_o pit_n and_o my_o life_n from_o enter_v into_o the_o grave_n true_o this_o can_v be_v thorough_o dispatch_v as_o now_o but_o it_o must_v suffice_v we_o to_o have_v a_o short_a abridgement_n of_o it_o as_o need_n require_v for_o the_o join_n of_o this_o part_n too_o that_o with_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o discourse_n have_v be_v make_v of_o the_o confess_v of_o sin_n how_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v ashamed_a to_o condemn_v themselves_o &_o that_o afterward_o it_o behove_v they_o immediate_o to_o add_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n in_o that_o they_o have_v know_v his_o goodness_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v i_o have_v sin_v i_o have_v turn_v away_o from_o goodness_n yea_o and_o it_o have_v not_o boot_v i_o at_o all_o but_o my_o god_n have_v draw_v i_o out_o of_o the_o pit_n then_o assoon_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v our_o wretchedness_n &_o to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o he_o will_v have_v we_o immediate_o to_o preach_v god_n mercy_n according_a as_o we_o have_v feel_v it_o how_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o perish_v as_o we_o must_v needs_o have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v not_o help_v we_o and_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o unto_o sinner_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o boot_n they_o to_o resist_v their_o maker_n then_o what_o shall_v we_o gain_v when_o we_o hide_v our_o sin_n and_o think_v not_o upon_o they_o but_o rather_o nourish_v they_o by_o fond_a selfelyke_v alas_o alas_o it_o be_v always_o too_o our_o great_a destruction_n but_o when_o god_n discover_v our_o iniquity_n and_o make_v we_o too_o feel_v they_o them_z do_v he_o procure_v our_o profit_n for_o therein_o he_o provoke_v we_o too_o resort_v unto_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o first_o point_n that_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o strain_v and_o further_o let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o when_o god_n shake_v we_o off_o and_o lay_v our_o wickedness_n too_o our_o charge_n there_o be_v no_o remedy_n but_o we_o must_v be_v forlorn_a until_o our_o god_n be_v pitiful_a to_o we_o and_o receive_v we_o too_o mercy_n and_o therefore_o whensoever_o god_n forgive_v our_o sin_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o raise_v we_o from_o death_n so_o as_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o when_o we_o be_v so_o reconcile_v unto_o god_n then_o have_v he_o wrought_v a_o resurrection_n in_o us._n we_o be_v dead_a and_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o life_n in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o and_o he_o reach_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o make_v we_o alive_a again_o and_o too_o draw_v we_o unto_o he_o so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o magnify_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n acknowledge_v that_o god_n do_v raise_v we_o to_o life_n as_o often_o as_o it_o please_v he_o to_o receive_v we_o to_o mercy_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o see_v that_o satan_n cease_v not_o to_o thrust_v we_o from_o so_o great_a a_o benefit_n let_v we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o inflame_v and_o provoke_v to_o exalt_v it_o high_o as_o it_o deserve_v now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o sin_n pray_v he_o so_o to_o exercise_v we_o in_o his_o judgement_n &_o in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o
must_v inspire_v we_o with_o his_o grace_n and_o enlighten_v our_o heart_n which_o be_v full_a of_o rebelliousness_n then_o until_o such_o time_n as_o god_n have_v reform_v we_o sure_o we_o will_v always_o shut_v our_o eye_n that_o we_o may_v not_o see_v his_o way_n now_o if_o this_o be_v speak_v of_o such_o as_o have_v not_o the_o mean_n that_o god_n give_v unto_o we_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o for_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v back_o again_o to_o the_o point_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v i_o say_v even_o now_o that_o the_o heathen_a man_n be_v not_o to_o be_v excuse_v in_o

have_v not_o regard_v god_n goodness_n nor_o live_v and_o walk_v accord_v too_o godliness_n i_o pray_v you_o in_o what_o case_n be_v we_o which_o have_v a_o far_a other_o knowledge_n than_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o for_o our_o lord_n point_v we_o as_o it_o be_v with_o his_o finger_n what_o way_n we_o shall_v go_v and_o the_o text_n which_o i_o allege_v out_o of_o moses_n namely_o that_o be_v the_o way_n walk_v therein_o be_v of_o great_a importance_n i_o take_v heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o witness_v say_v he_o that_o this_o day_n i_o have_v show_v you_o life_n and_o death_n and_o that_o if_o you_o go_v amiss_o you_o shall_v be_v without_o excuse_n before_o god_n for_o it_o appear_v that_o you_o seek_v your_o own_o destruction_n and_o why_o for_o in_o as_o much_o as_o your_o god_n teach_v you_o and_o grant_v you_o such_o prerogative_n as_o to_o declare_v his_o will_n unto_o you_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v put_v the_o way_n into_o our_o hand_n and_o you_o refuse_v it_o and_o choose_v death_n now_o when_o man_n make_v such_o a_o choice_n must_v they_o not_o needs_o become_v stark_a devil_n so_o then_o this_o protestation_n of_o moses_n ought_v to_o pierce_v our_o heart_n and_o make_v we_o to_o bethink_v ourselves_o better_a and_o sith_o we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n set_v a_o doctrine_n before_o we_o which_o be_v for_o our_o behoof_n as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o glass_n or_o a_o lively_a picture_n let_v we_o not_o play_v the_o blind_a and_o blear_a eye_v folk_n neither_o let_v we_o draw_v a_o curtain_n before_o we_o too_o the_o intent_n to_o

to_o we_o it_o be_v not_o to_o leave_v we_o in_o doubt_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v not_o know_v what_o his_o word_n mean_v but_o contrariwise_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v receive_v good_a doctrine_n and_o instruction_n by_o his_o word_n and_o this_o be_v another_o point_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o many_o pretend_v that_o god_n word_n be_v so_o deep_a as_o man_n can_v tell_v what_o to_o take_v too_o or_o what_o to_o follow_v but_o this_o be_v a_o accuse_v of_o god_n as_o if_o so_o be_v he_o mock_v we_o in_o put_v we_o in_o hope_n to_o deceive_v we_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o god_n speak_v it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v receive_v good_a doctrine_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v become_v wise_a and_o skilful_a to_o follow_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n give_v wisdom_n to_o the_o ignorant_a which_o be_v by_o know_v their_o own_o slenderness_n that_o they_o may_v yield_v themselves_o unto_o he_o then_o shall_v we_o always_o find_v the_o say_a use_n to_o our_o own_o profit_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n if_o we_o have_v the_o wisdom_n to_o be_v desirous_a to_o go_v forward_o in_o the_o right_a way_n of_o salvation_n and_o to_o keep_v we_o in_o it_o and_o if_o a_o man_n turn_v aside_o because_o he_o have_v not_o consider_v god_n way_n it_o can_v not_o be_v say_v that_o he_o have_v err_v for_o want_n of_o better_a ability_n but_o contrariwise_o he_o himself_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o his_o evil_a and_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v wyte_z upon_o he_o there_o be_v yet_o one_o say_n more_o to_o be_v note_v which_o be_v that_o he_o speak_v of_o all_o the_o way_n of_o god._n wherein_o we_o be_v advertise_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o too_o content_v we_o in_o part_n and_o too_o serve_v he_o by_o half_n but_o we_o must_v thorough_o and_o whole_o frame_v our_o life_n altogether_o to_o his_o will._n for_o to_o give_v ear_n to_o all_o that_o he_o say_v and_o to_o submit_v a_o man_n self_n to_o he_o without_o exception_n come_v both_o to_o one_o end_n and_o undoubted_o those_o two_o commandment_n be_v inseparable_a like_a as_o god_n himself_o can_v be_v divide_v so_o also_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o his_o righteousness_n can_v not_o be_v divide_v what_o manner_n of_o one_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n he_o have_v comprehend_v it_o in_o his_o whole_a law_n he_o say_v not_o only_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v abstain_v from_o whoredom_n neither_o have_v he_o only_o forbid_a theft_n neither_o have_v he_o only_o

this_o a_o rend_n of_o god_n righteousness_n in_o piece_n for_o as_o i_o say_v all_o the_o commandment_n be_v inseparable_a and_o there_o be_v in_o they_o a_o holy_a bond_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v

thus_o you_o see_v what_o eliu_n mean_v to_o note_v here_o and_o hereby_o we_o see_v that_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v diligent_a in_o look_v to_o himself_o therefore_o if_o we_o intend_v to_o

which_o we_o feel_v so_o in_o ourselves_o lo_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o practice_v this_o sentence_n and_o furthermore_o it_o be_v show_v we_o also_o that_o when_o man_n have_v once_o begin_v to_o

be_v not_o so_o malicious_a as_o to_o give_v ourselves_o over_o to_o all_o vice_n at_o the_o first_o day_n we_o shall_v be_v hold_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o a_o while_n but_o if_o we_o

thenceforth_o carry_v we_o away_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o become_v utter_o unrecoverable_a you_o see_v then_o that_o after_o man_n have_v once_o left_a to_o frame_v themselves_o whole_o to_o god_n will_v and_o to_o give_v themselves_o to_o soundness_n and_o simplicity_n they_o do_v so_o appare_v as_o there_o be_v no_o more_o consideration_n in_o they_o but_o they_o grieve_v god_n not_o

afore_o how_o rightful_a god_n justice_n be_v in_o chastise_v we_o and_o why_o they_o that_o have_v do_v amiss_o rebel_v still_o further_o against_o god_n they_o run_v away_o from_o he_o and_o have_v no_o will_n to_o be_v teach_v good_a but_o give_v themselves_o over_o unto_o evil_n witting_o and_o willing_o then_o be_v it_o not_o high_a time_n that_o god_n shall_v set_v to_o his_o hand_n to_o

that_o we_o have_v deserve_v long_a time_n afore_o too_o be_v thunder_v at_o by_o
again_o if_o god_n advance_v we_o in_o honour_n above_o other_o man_n or_o if_o he_o endue_v we_o with_o any_o virtue_n let_v we_o acknowledge_v the_o same_o to_o come_v of_o he_o and_o furthermore_o

we_o away_o when_o we_o use_v violence_n and_o outrage_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n for_o when_o we_o devour_v one_o and_o fleece_v another_o of_o all_o his_o good_n and_o show_v all_o the_o spite_n

with_o his_o only_a look_n yea_o but_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o scripture_n sometime_o he_o hide_v himself_o from_o his_o faithful_a one_o not_o that_o he_o ever_o forget_v they_o or_o be_v

we_o according_a to_o our_o fleshly_a understanding_n and_o so_o god_n seem_v not_o too_o look_v upon_o the_o proud_a when_o he_o suffer_v they_o to_o cast_v forth_o their_o poison_n after_o that_o fashion_n and_o bear_v with_o the_o number_n of_o outrage_n and_o enormity_n which_o they_o commit_v yea_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o their_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v let_v we_o tarry_v till_o god_n

to_o double_a use_n for_o the_o faithful_a aught_o to_o take_v comfort_n at_o it_o and_o although_o god_n deliver_v they_o not_o from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o wicked_a at_o the_o first_o brunt_n

out_o of_o the_o proud_a and_o wicked_a sort_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o must_v hold_v themselves_o quiet_a till_o the_o thing_n be_v do_v in_o the_o mean_a while_n let_v the_o proud_a sort_n

upon_o we_o and_o then_o shall_v our_o fault_n be_v bewray_v to_o our_o great_a confusion_n so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o although_o man_n perceive_v not_o god_n judgement_n in_o

we_o pray_v before_o god_n we_o must_v have_v our_o recourse_n too_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o can_v otherwise_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o he_o and_o

if_o we_o be_v stubborn_a and_o stiffnecked_a so_o as_o we_o will_v not_o bow_v god_n will_v come_v upon_o we_o with_o main_a blow_n of_o the_o beetle_n then_o it_o may_v seem_v unto_o we_o that_o

handle_v they_o as_o they_o be_v worthy_a it_o will_v be_v a_o terrible_a deal_n too_o they_o and_o therefore_o that_o when_o job_n come_v as_o a_o mean_a betwixt_o they_o with_o his_o prayer_n than_o
